Well, for starters it sounds like the neutral safety switch is out of adjustment. An automatic transmission vehicle should only start in Park or Neutral. It should not have started in Reverse. Once you get that fixed if it still doing the same thing, I'd suspect the TCC (Torque Converter Clutch) solenoid in the transmission is stuck on. This locks in the torque converter clutch and will make the engine stall as soon as you shift out of Park. Hope that helps! Jim
