1 Transmission Gear Slipping problem

Failure Date: 08/19/2008

This just started one day when we were coming back into town. The car has never been crashed. If you drive around town I drives fine but once you accelerate above 55 mph something causes the transmission to slip from 1st to 2nd gear. After about an hour the transmission will work fine. I know another person whose chevy Blazer did the same thing.
