My Stratus will hesitate when you accelerate then let off the gas and it gets to 1,000rpm

The check engine light is not on and this problem started after I was leaving work, put the car in reverse drove out of my spot...put it in drive and it went in reverse, so I stopped put it in park and then put it in drive again and it went in reverse! So I again put it in park and then drive and it finally worked. Now, the car hesitates when I am driving all of the time, not during acceleration, but when I am slowing down and it reaches 1000 rpm (approx). It doesn't do it when the car is cold and when I have it in 3rd. I am really puzzled and would love some advice.
