How long since you last replaced the transmission fluid, the filter may be getting blocked and that can cause slipping too.

The OP's car probably has a 4T65E transmission, so it does not have a
vacuum modulator on the transmission. Even if it did, all the modulator affects is the stiffness of the upshifts. It would not cause a sudden catastrophic failure.
I agree with the suggestion to check the fluid level and go from there.
