My 2008 Mazda Tribute drives fine in morning. I get in after work at it won't go past 30 mph and the rpm' s go real high. I pull over and stop then it goes away. It's very intermittent. Feels like the brake is stuck on but it's not. If I'm at a complete stop then let off the gas the car doesn't roll. Help.

Try flushing the transmission first and see if it helps. you can also contact a Mazda dealer to see if there is a re-flash for the TCM, but unfortunately it probably has a internal issue.
