just because u have baught a stupid automatic car, get one with menual shifting
Had similar problem several years ago. There is a sensor in the transmission that, when it fails, will not allow the transmission to shift to a higher gear. When it happened to me, I could not manually shift it to a higher gear. I took to repair shop to be fixed. Not sure if it is a diy project.

Why is my1998 Catera stuck in 1st gear?

Your 1998 Catera may be stuck in 1st gear due to a few potential issues, such as a malfunctioning transmission control module, low transmission fluid levels, or a problem with the shift linkage. Additionally, a faulty sensor or a mechanical failure within the transmission itself could also prevent it from shifting properly. It's advisable to have a professional diagnose the issue to determine the exact cause and necessary repairs.


What does it mean if your 1999 Chrysler sebring jxi will go in reverse fine but wont get out of 1st gear going forward?

You need to have the system checked for codes. Any electrical problem with the trans can cause a no shift.
