Have you checked the fluid levels? Does it smell burnt?

As stated, check fluid level first. Next step then should probably be a fluid and filter change.

X2.....

Talking to you today, that's the 2nd time you've run it out of fluid, auto's don't like that & need to be "run through" to get the fluid level correct.....

Or you could just ban your BF from driving it... :lol:

Have you taken the pan off? The pick-up may be full of shit? I haven't had a pan off one of these ones before but the pick-up is usually also a changeable filter

Run the trouble codes for the auto? 2-3 only is "limp home" IIRC.
