It sounds like the TRANSMISSION has gone into what is called the FAIL SAFE MODE.

You need to STOP driving it and have the transmission scaned with an obdII engine scanner.

The computer / PCM / power train control module a problem in the transmission and puts the transmission in the fail safe mode to keep it from blowing apart.
