I have a 00 GT automatic and drove it all day today without any problems. I went to go somewhere later and as I went down the street my rpm's just kept going higher without going into 2nd gear. Reverse, Neutral and everything work fine. When I get the rpm's up around 3500 if I let off of the gas it will drop into 2nd. Any ideas on what this might be would be great.
 
follow up

The car has 52,000 miles I got it 3 yrs ago and never had any trans work done. I checked the fluid and it is fine. Im not sure how to find out about codes.
 
Try and see if you can make it shift doing it manually. I had one of my other cars do this. I called the transmission place that did the work and they asked me to try shifting it manually. They said that if I could get it to shift then it was a hose/wire that came off. It did shift and I took it back in the shop and they connected the hose/wire and everything was fine. This was an older car so it may not apply to your case, but I thought I would throw it out there.
Good luck!
