try changing the tranny fluid the transmission is a very vital device on the car and does need to be taken care of ,and if the tranny fluid change does not work you may have bad sprockets within and you may be better off gettin a new one in which is very pricey and yet if you have the money to do so this is what i recommend but yet it really does sound to me that the tranny is out indefinetly.

SOURCE: will not shift to third gear

U need to have a trouble code test run to see if the 2-3 shift solenoid inside the trans is defective or the circuit to it, this can also be a trans connector problem.

My 1995 buick lesabre electronic transmission- it shifts at the wrong speeds and sometimes will not shift into high gear on the highway, but sometimes it will work. and sometimes it loses gear on th

First off, have you changed your trans fluid lately. sounds like you need a trans flush. when you drop the trans pan and replace the filter and fluid you only get 3 to 4 quarts of transfluid. your trans holdt 12 to 15 quarts. so have it flushed completely cost $80 tp $120 but beats buying a new or rebuilt trans. always make sure you have the right amount of trans fluid. underfilling will cause lose of pressure and not shift properly. over filling a trans will cause over pressure and cause worse problems.
