Hey JDBRLB,

IT sounds like the transmission selector cable has broken or has come undone at either the transmission or the shifter. Jack up the car and get under it to observe the selector arm on the transmission and have a helper shift the gears to see what happens.

Please let us know what you find so it will help others.

Best, Ken
