Car shop cant find out whats wrong with car can you help?

Question:
When I drive my car it starts out fine except for it shifts kinda hard from first to second gear sometimes. After driving for about 15 to 20 min my car when stopped will get stuck in second gear and then eventually putter out and shut off. If i try to start it back up it will not start up right away most times and if it does will putter out and shut off again. So I will let the car rest and drive for as long as i can before it shuts off again. After I let it sit over night i will be able to drive it for 15 - 20 min before it starts again. I brought it to the car shop and they said after fixing the overhead cam sensor that i should bring it to a dealership cause they dont know whats wrong. The car is a 1995 dodge neon with 102,000 miles on it. Please help.

2001 Impala LS?

go to your favorite service center, and have your tranny fluid and filter changed. make shure they completely drain out the torque converter, when they do the fluid change

Can someone "pimp my ride"?

sounds like the transmission is locking up . Check the level of your transmission fluid if its an automatic.

Headlight problems?

Sounds to me like 2 problems. The trans getting stuck in second gear is most likely because of a sticking throttle valve linkage (very common on older Neons). The cutting out issue can be a number of different things. Try pulling fault codes (Autozone or the equivilant can do so). Post the codes and we'll see what we can come up with.
