Have a 1996 Dodge Caravan 3.0 V6 for whatever reason the tranny will not go in reverse or should I stay in reverse. Wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem and haven't gotten it look at just yet, trying to find info of what I maybe in for.

#1 thing to check for, make sure that your fluid level is at the right marks on the dipstick and also the color is not brown or black.

If you pull the pan, you might find a broken piece of metal stuck to the magnet, if your lucky, the band spacer has broken, I was lucky enough to just install a new plate (small rectangular plate) and re-tighten the band.

Good Luck

does it jump out of gear when you push the gas pedal?does it go out of gear when you are on an incline.If #1 you have a 3pd trans with seized shift tubes,if #2 you have a vehicle with low fluid
