The gear shift from first gear to third and sticks there, unless you restart the engine.

Hello,

We need to start by checking for codes, here is a guide that will help you get that done.

It sounds like you have a transmission shift solenoid that gets hung up. But we need to be sure.

Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken
