Not sure the cause, but I will tell you that your trans is going into "Limp Mode." It stays in second gear to prevent damage and to get you home.

any way thank you for your reply dude116 , but what is the cause ?

Hard to say, it could be anything from a bad sensor to a failing transmission. Sadly the Jeep TCM codes aren't available online, as far as I've been able to find. Your only hope may be a dealership. :shrug:
