No, but the current one needs to be serviced. The Pathfinder should have computer controlled shift solenoids, so have a dealership/transmission shop diagnose a possible electronic problem with your transmission. I would also a transmission flush followed by a filter change done because the problem could be debris is the line going to the LO-Reverse clutch. If that doesn't work, then the transmission needs to be rebuilt by a professional (if you have never been inside a transmission you cannot do the rebuild yourself). If you cannot afford to have the transmission rebuilt, then you might be able to get a replacement one out of junkyard. I caution you on a junkyard transmission, because they have been exposed to the elements, they have a tendency to fail.

Why does transmission pull forward with car in reverse?

If you mean the transmission itself shifts forward, it is because the transmission is suspended, so when the transmission is put in reverse gear the momentum will push the transmission forward. Now, if the car pulls forward when put in reverse, this means there is a transmission problem. This may just indicate the shift linkages need adjustment, or that the transmission has a major problem and needs repairing. Take it to a shop and have it checked.
