Your transmission computer is detecting a problem and putting your
transmission in fail-safe. You can turn the car off and restart it and
your transmission will no longer be in fail-safe, but the computer will
return it there once it redetects the problem. Take it in and have it
checked out.

My guess worth what it costs: Input speed sensor.
