Cannot Reverse - Transmission Problem

I have 91 Maxima GXE Automatic Transmission.Yesterday,somehow reverse gear stopped working.But forward gear was working fine.After 20 mins of drive to work reverse gear started working again. Other thing I noticed ,in neutral it was going fwd !What could have gone wrong ? Will I have to get any parts changed ?

Thanks

Sounds like worn shifter bushings. Do a search for 'shifter bushings'. Luckily if it's the bushings it's a very simple and inexpensive problem.
