My problem is when I go to put the car in to park it stays in reverse. I have to move the gear shift up fast to put it in to park, and then sometimes that does not work. What could be the problem?

Hi:
It sounds like there is a problem with the shifter linkage. Check under the hood to the trans to see if anything seems to have too much play.

Let me know what you find.
