I was driving my Bravada, and it sounded like something popped and when it did, it wouldn't go any where, you have to manually shift into gears. Someone said something about a Neutral Safety Switch, could that be the problem? If not, could you give me some idea what it might be?

Hi,

The Neutral safety switch has nothing to do with transmission shifting. I suggest that you take the vehicle to have the computer scanned for trouble codes. Most nationally recognized parts stores will do it for free.

Let me know what they find.
