I have a 2003 Dodge Neon with 114,000 miles.
Whenever I am driving, and I put the car in reverse to back up, then back into drive, it will sort of stop, even if i am pressing the gas, and about a second or two later it will jerk forward and continue moving. It is so annoying! This only happens when I put the car in reverse. I am afraid it may be my transmission going bad. However, I have seen on other similar questions that it may be a quick fix? Something about a bad or stretched shift cable or linkage to the transmission??? I am afraid to get it checked out because if its the tranny, i just cant afford it. im 18 and dont have ajob.
