2002 Ford Explorer XLT 4.0 liter jerks when engaging into reverse. Vehicle jerks hard enough that the brakes are not enough to stop it from moving. No other gear is like this. Upon further study from online journals and discussions pages as well as speaking with transmission technician, this is a very common problem in these.
