I've had the same problem with my two Jeeps . One I had to have rebuilt and the other was a sensor .

I had this car for 5 years, took care of it, didn't drive like a maniac, and one day, a month after I had just paid it off, I'm driving on a freeway, and my trans blows. Car wouldn't move. Had to have entrie trans rebuilt, even the casing had to be replaced. Two grand and three months later, my trans blows AGAIN. Mechanic said it was due to it overheating. whatever, basically the car couldn't handle going over 60 mph anymore. Anyways, ended up trading it in for a honda.
* If you have this car, INSTALL A COOLING SYSTEM FOR YOUR TRANSMISSION!!!! seriously, it costs around $60 bucks, and it will keep your trans going for a lot longer. good luck!

So let's start from the beginning. I bought this clunker almost 5 months ago, yeah many people got suckered in into buying this failure of a car. I had several other issues with it but the worst is the last issue I had with till I sent it to the crusher. The trans was shifting rough even during the test drive but it was only first gear and my brother said it's normal for 4cylinders, that's bull$&@#. I bought this for 2000$ and the trans dies 5 months later. The day it happened I was heading back to my home when, 127miles away from home, the trans blows up, according to my mechanic, literally. It shifts into park so hard that my neck suffered whiplash of the 3rd degree. I shifted it into park, then back into drive and slowly accelerated till a half mile later, the trans fails entirely. The car refuses to move if on in any gear obviously park but not in drive and more surprisingly neutral didn't work either.needless to say this car wasn't worth the crappy plastic it was made from. Do NOT buy this POS.
Update from Oct 30, 2018: I had just been notified that my timing belt and the drive train both went when the trans did which he thinks is why it wouldn't move in neutral
