I presume the van has a stick shift. The linkage might need adjusting. Beyond that there’s probably an internal problem. Take it to a good independent transmission shop.

The transmission is in limp mode (2nd gear). There are faults detected by the transmission control module, could be as simple as an input or output speed sensor failure.

Did you remove the transmission dip stick, and check the color/smell of the transmission fluid?

No manual was offered with the 3.3L. The Ultradrive 4 speed automatic was the only transmission available with that engine.

Thanks. The OP threw me talking about shifting. I don’t “shift” an automatic transmission.
