If your front-wheel-drive Transit is only able to engage 3rd and 4th gears, it may indicate an issue with the transmission system. This could be due to low Transmission Fluid, a malfunctioning transmission control module, or internal transmission damage. A faulty shift linkage or sensor could also prevent the transmission from shifting into lower gears. It's advisable to have a professional mechanic diagnose the issue for accurate repairs.
Automatic transmission? 2 vehicle will shift only from 1st to 2nd gear 3 vehicle will shift from 1st to 2nd to 3rd gear 4 vehicle will shift from 1st to 2nd to 3rd to 4th gear

The transmission will only shift from 1st gear into second gear. It will not shift into 3rd, 4th or overdrive. Generally, temporarily used for pulling a heavy load like pulling a boat out of the water.

1st gear down 2nd gear up 3rd up 4th up 5th up N between first and 2nd gear
The input sunshell splines have stripped or the hub has broken off. This will give you 1st + 3rd gears only with no reverse, 2nd, or 4th gear.
You may have shifted into reverse by accident, I've done it a few timesAnswerYou may also be having problems with the synchro rings that allow the gears to mesh without the grinding. 1st-2nd gear share a synchro and 3rd-4th gear share a synchro too. It sounds like the 3rd-4th gear synchro may be worn.
Most likely a broken gear cluster
