I was driving up a hill at approx. 5 miles an hour, with coworker in vehicle. The transmission could not find a gear and the vehicle lost momentum and rolled backwards down the hill. I had to slam on my breaks before I hit another vehicle. We were at kaiser hospital assisting with the cooling towers of the hospital. I had to turn the vehicle off and then on, and slow make my way to the parking area. My coworker was extremely worried and felt the vehicle was unsafe, as did I. This problem has happened several times.
