Description of the problem	I had been driving with no problems. Turned in to a minimart, parked vehicle. When i returned a few minutes later, i started the vehicle, backed up, stopped, then started to pull out of the parking lot to turn onto the highway. I accelerated and the transmission would not go out of second gear. I pulled off the highway shut the vehicle off, restarted and tried to continue my trip.
