Exclamation Gears may be Slipping?!? PLZ HELP

K i have an automatic and when its in drive it seems to keep wantikng to slip down back into third. The gears also arent lined up on the cluster...like when the light is on "2" its actually in first. Dunno if that makes sense...

but ya i was just wondering if this is going to be a big problem or a reasonable fix.

Sounds like the shifter is not aligned properly. Or shifter cable has stretched.
