Default Transmission is starting off in 2nd.

Hey guys, my 99 dodge's automatic trans is haveing some issues. It is starting off in second gear, and will not go into 4th gear overdrive, but I can get it to go in 1st manualy putting the selector in 1st. 2nd/3rd are good, and the it does not slip seems real tight. Any ideas to what's going on?
