    I was leaving the driveway this morning, windows down music at a good
    level and started down the road when i noticed that the rev’s were
    around 3000, let off the accelerator and it wouldn’t shift so i tried
    to get it to shift by putting it in 3rd and then low and nothing it
    stayed in the gear which i assume is first..what could this be?

    It sounds like it went into limp mode. When one of the transmission sensors
    reports a problem, the transmission will remain in second gear.

    The best thing to do would be to take it to a reputable transmission
    shop that
    has the appropriate scan tool. If they merely want to do a "test
    drive," take it
    somewhere else.

    It may be as simple as a sensor failure, all the way to needing a
    rebuild. The
    transmissions in the "Cloud Cars" have been fairly reliable.
