SMG Problems

I was driving home today, stopped at a stop sign, and the warning chime went off. I looked at the dash for lights, but none were lit. The transmission shifted into third and wouldn't shift. When I pulled off the road I briefly got a lit automatic trans light (it just flashed once). Immediately the "service engine soon" light came on. I shut the engine off for about three minutes. When I restarted the car the SES light remained on but the trans worked perfectly again. After about 3 stops and starts, the SES light went out. I'm assuming I have an SMG problem of some sort. I'm waiting for the issue to reoccur and leave me stranded somewhere. Anyone? What say you???
