It is possible that the transmission fluid is dirty or low. You should check the level and condition of the fluid. If it is dirty, it should be changed immediately. If it is low, top it up with the recommended type of transmission fluid.

Another potential issue could be with the transmission control module. It is responsible for controlling the shifts and if it is malfunctioning, it could cause the symptoms you are experiencing. I recommend taking your vehicle to a trusted mechanic for further diagnosis and potential replacement of the module.

In some cases, a faulty sensor can also cause transmission issues. Specifically, the speed sensor or the throttle position sensor could be the culprit. These can also be checked and replaced by a mechanic if needed.
