Reported at 133,000 miles, December 2014 Fire

While first driving my car from a standstill, I noticed the "wrench idiot light" on. The car seemed to buck as it went through it's gears. Also, the speedometer registered "0" at this time. Upon entering the highway, the car would not go into what I think is 4th gear. Several times, the car lurched forward and then throttled back to a low RPM, before responding to the gas pedal. Eventually, I could run at 55 MPH @ 3000 rpm's, but it wouldn't shift any further, even when I went faster.
