1997 Honda Accord Odd Transmission behavior

1997 Honda Accord 4 cyl 178000 miles

I bought this Honda recently, drove it home and an additional 100 miles then the Car just acted like it was in Neutral while driving. You can park, turn it off, turn it back on and drive another mile or 2 before the same thing happens again. The ignition swith and some wiring has been jerked out of the steering column. Is this a Transmission problem or an Electrical Problem? Thanks for any help.
