91 Automatic jumps out of gear
 

Have a 91 EX, with over 200k, that will occasionally jump out of D4 into
neutral. Also, you can move the shifter between the gear positions without
pushing the shifter button.
Is this a problem with the transmission or with the shift lever mechanism?

n, d4 & d3 all shift without the lock. if you jump from d4 to n, check
the cable adjustment or tell your passenger to stop doing what they're
doing.
