With the limited information given, if it's on a hill rolling forward when in reverse then your reverse gear is gone and you will have to rebuild/replace your transmission.

You can also request me in the future for any additional questions by using "Ask me a new question" option on your “My Questions” page or by visiting my profile (you can add me to your favorites also). Have a great day, thanks for being awesome, and thank you again for choosing JustAnswer!
