I can understand the dilema, one says to get the car serviced, the other says turn off the engine!!!
Are there any other lights on? Temp gauge OK?
"I" would check the oil level, coolant level, ATF level, and if all were OK, then continue to the next autoparts store and have them read the codes. Or, go to a dealer close by.
You didn't say if the car was loaded down and it was hilly. The ATF could get hot in the hills and force the car into a lower gear.
