Starts up fine and goes into gear starts to drive but then it just stop moving. I turn the car off and then start it up again without and resting time and it start to move again but repeats the symptom above. I can turn the car off and start it again it will move for a few minutes then nothing . please if you have any answer or idea I am stumped. I would greatly appreciated it.

Good morning,

I would start by changing the transmission oil/filter. If you have a clogged filter, it will do this.

Beyond this, you have an internal failure in the transmission.
