You are probably low on transmission fluids
Reason is, your clutch is going out or tranny is about to be shot!
Your 2000 Ford Contour cannot reverse because of a transmission failure problem.
If your 93 Nissan Maxima will not go into reverse at all, your transmission is either getting ready to go out or you are low on transmission fluid. You should check your transmission fluid first before messing with the actual transmission.
check your transmission fluid level. If it's low, then reverse goes out first. If that doesn't do it, you may need to take it to a transmission shop..
This is commonly a problem with the transmission filter or fluid. Replace the transmission fluid or have your transmission filter taken in for maintenance.
There's probably something wrong with the reverse gear. Have it checked by a mechanic then see how much it would cost to repair it.
Bad transmission? Bent shift linkage?
