I just bought the vehicle listed above and when I put it in reverse it's like it's in neutral. In drive it shifts fine.

Hi,
If you place it in low gear, will it move? Is the transmission fluid clean and full? Have you checked for diagnostic trouble codes? Also, let me know if this is a 2wd or 4wd vehicle. That changes the transmission.
I will watch for your reply.
