What causes an automatic transmission to not go into reverse?
In an automatic transmission, these units function as a one-way clutch. When the clutches begin to fail, the lower gears will not engage. Repair requires replacing the torque convertor and flushing the transmission fluid. A worn reverse gear can also occur when a transmission is mishandled.
When to use park and reverse on an automatic car?
Most automatic gearboxes will let you select between ‘P’ (for park), ‘R’ (reverse), ‘N’ (neutral) and ‘D’ (drive). Park should only be used when you’re stopped and getting out of the car. Reverse does as it says – acts the same as a reverse gear in a manual, and should be selected when you want to drive backwards.
Why is my car not backing up when I put it in reverse?
Sometimes the clutch jams between the torque converter. Some minimal shifting between gears usually loosens the clutch, which enables you to put the car in reverse again. Check the transmission fluid level for both manual and automatic transmissions and check the clutch fluid for manual transmissions.

What happens when I put the car in reverse?
Put the car in reverse holding the brake the car stalls, if I go into neutral or drive it works fine. If I put the car in reverse not holding the brake it shifts rough but doesn’t stall. I have not driven the car at speeds higher than 35mph, so not sure of the other gears.
