Has the check engine light come on? This could be caused by a bad shift solenoid. Also, is the fluid clean and full?

If the light is on, there will be a code stored in the computer. Take it to a nationally recognized parts store and have them scan it for you. Most will do it for free, and then you will know where the problem is coming from.

Let me know what you find.
