I was driving when I saw the tachometer revs too high and realized that the car was not changing gears, so I put it in AutoStick mode and nothing it stays in 2nd.
The next day with the car stopped I changed gears manually and it shifted PRND 123 but no 4th. and when started driving it for a while it will change to 2nd. and Reverse only.
That same issue happened to me about two years ago when visiting the USA and was repaired there, but I can not remember what was the failure but I guess was some sensors or something like that.

Thank You.

Your transmission has gone into "limp" mode. Usually, it is the input and/output speed sensors, transmission control module, and/or solenoid pack.
