So, I drive my car on the freeway it will not past seventy five miles per hour when it starts to stutter and tries to shut off my rpm run at 3,500 when it happens. Already replace all my sensors in the transmission, new filter and transmission fluid, but still does it.

Limp mode is designed to allow you to drive the car slowly to a repair shop without needing a tow truck. Do not try to force it to run at highway speed or you will do damage to the engine.

The place to start is by having the diagnostic fault codes read and recorded. You may need to visit a mechanic with a scanner that can access the Transmission Computer. Most simple code readers only read fault codes in the Engine Computer. Once we know the fault code number(s), we will have an idea of where to start.
