hmmm., might be the stuck in park problem... usually a piece breaks off inside the gear box but the check engine light doesnt usually go off?
you may have to get it towed... if you have a scanner you can plug it into your car and run a test..

You should visit trans shop ASAP. At least your car run 772.6 trans, should be very popular w/ shop and easier to troubleshoot than the 772.9

Best case: trans control unit screw up. Worse case: trans screw up

Have you checked trans oil ? If it's too low, it can't ship gear either
