I reversed and my car went about a foot then felt and sounded like I hit something, I got out checked I didn’t. I drove straight reversed again and it did it again. Today it is fine reverses fine but any idea of what this could be?

These transmissions have problems with "speed sensors" and torque converter "slip".

Hard gear engagement can be caused by a one or more speed sensors. The transmission control module will react to one or more speed sensor errors.

The entire vehicle network requires a scan to determine the origin of the fault.

At least, check the transmission fluid level and have the model scanned.
