What is happening is the car is putting itself into limp in mode. It's detecting something isn't right with the transmission electronics. It's designed for the owner to only drive it up 45 MPH to get it to a repair facility. A good repair shop with a scanner will be able to tell you what sensor is acting up on it. Usually it's a sensor and is very easily replaced.

My 2000 dodge neon jerks when shifting to 2nd and 3rd gear and when going up a hill.

I hate to tell you but it sounds like your transmission was rebuilt incorrectly and need to be corrected or tossed and start anew, new transmissions for your truck are roughly $1,600. I'm sorry to hear about your problem.
