after coming to a stop car accellerates slowly when entering traffic, like transmission hasn't down shifted completely and I'm pulling out still in 2nd gear.

Try manually shifting to L to test if there are any changes.
It is possible the trans did not down shift to 1 and further diagbnostics woud be required to find out what is wrong.
How is the transmission fluid level and condition?
Was anything done prior to this occurring?
Are up and down shifting correct for other gears while driving?
