Lets first check the fluid level and did you notice if the gear selector light is working does it show the transmission going into drive? Here is a guide to help with instructions in the images below to help with your car.

If the gear range lights or not working correctly I would replace the gear range sensor. Here is the locations for that as well. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.
