Why does check engine lite and oil lite lite when your 2000 Dodge Stratus 2.4L stops shifting and stays in low gear The fluid levels are ok although the transmission fluid was about 2 qrts overfilled?

OK, I am answering this one myself. "Locking" in low gear is a Dodge safety feature that tells you something is wrong with the transmission. The free diagnostic test by Auto Zone was correct in it being the shift solenoid (in or part of the transmission) code 700. I had it replaced at a Dodge Dealer for a total of $538.40. Of course I had to pay for their diagnostic test which came up with the same code as auto Zone which told me AZ is a reiable source for help. She runs like a charm now!
