2003 Dodge Neon 89,000 miles

Hello I have an 03 dodge neon and a couple of months ago I was having problems with it not going into drive or reverse I took it ti a mechanic and he said it was the motor mount he replaced it and the car work for about 4 months and while I was driving it it pushed real hard and when I went to brake I put it in park then I put it in drive and it would not move so my question is,is there another motor mount or do I need a new transmission? Thank you

What do you mean "it pushes hard"? The car? The brake pedal? Describe what's happening and what you've tried.

I get the impression a brake is sticking. Feel next to each wheel if one is really hot. If so, four possible causes are brake fluid contaminated with petroleum product, a sticking caliper piston, a constricted rubber brake hose, and a sticking parking brake cable.

Each of these things has different clues and symptoms. Since we can't feel the brake pedal or see anything, any observations you can share will help in determining the next steps to take in making an accurate diagnosis.
