Sounds like the torque converter is going out. Too much slip when it gets hot. Typical failure symptoms. The PCM may not set a code for this, but a scantool can read the realtime data fromt he PCM to show how much slip you're getting.

Jseabert next door to me can only drive for about 10 minutes before the car won't go any more. Friction material on the TC is gone. A good tranny flush may buy you some time, but I really think you're gonna be out some cash real soon.

4T60E transmissions may drop out of drive while cruising; shift erratically; or have no second, third, or fourth gear because of a bad ground connection for the shift solenoids. (1992-94)
