Need to have the powertrain scanned fo rcodes, but it sounds like the trans is probably having issues. Scan it and get back

Yep it is not shifting, here is a guide to help you get the codes so we can fix it, also is the speedometer working? if not this is your problem, I would replace the VSS sensor here is the location.
