I would check your VSS sensor. Try cleaning it, majority of the time this will correct the problem.

Check the check engine light for codes, directions to do that are at the top of this forum. Chances are it will be a code for a Speed Sensor. It's easy to change.

Its probably your VSS because it tends to break. I just had mine changed because my did the same thing too. Mine was $30. the VSS and the selfdone mechanic.
