Van dies when put in reverse	Sign In

I have a 1999 Chrysler Town and Country that starts but when you put it in reverse it dies. I took it to a shop and they replaced 2 sensors and it seemed to run and drive okay. For about a week. Now its doing the same thing and will eventually not start again. Can somebody please help me. I'm getting desperate and running out of money fast. Thank you.
