Why does 99 Honda Passport go into reverse but not drive?

If a 1999 Honda Passport goes into reverse but not drive, it could indicate a problem with the transmission, such as low fluid levels, a clogged filter, or internal damage to the transmission components. Additionally, issues with the shift linkage or a malfunctioning solenoid may prevent engagement in drive. It's advisable to check the Transmission Fluid level and condition first, and if the problem persists, a professional diagnosis may be necessary.
