one more car question...I have a 2001 Dodge Neon that won't go in reverse...?

[Kimbo]

It's 4 cylinder standard. My husband can force it into reverse but i have more difficulty. I want to have some kind of idea of what's going on so when we take it in I don't get scammed! Let me know if you need more info.

sounds like you just have a binding of sticking shift mechanism or cable,it would be under the shift boot,going through the floor.
it probably needs some cleaning and lubrication

there is something wrong with the gear shaft take it to your nearest gm goodwrench

tyranny is on the way out , try putting it in first gear then do to reverse if that works then it's the syncromesh out of whack
