your car is stuck in failsafe mode. When a problem is detected in your transmission, the TCU will throw you in 3rd gear to let you know there is a problem. Your tranny is throwing a code and you need to get access to either a datalogger or something that you can use to pick up the code manually from the diagnostic port . . . either that or you'll need to take it to the stealership or try to find some other shop who can pull the code.
