Sean Pried it could be your A604 4 Speed Automatic Transmission Shift Solenoid which is located just in front of your transmission dip stick.

The syncronizer could be out on it if so you will need to have the trans rebuilt or replaced

Yes, it could be the transmission control module or a shift solenoid in the transmission is plugged up or burnt out so it doesn't shift up.

Have 2005 neon SXT automatic. The Transmission is not shifting smoothly, is shifting at higher rpms than normal. Has vibration when you put it in reverse.

I would suggest that you try servicing the transmission and having the fluids and filters replaced. Dodge is really good about having transmission issues related to partially plugged filters or stuck valve bodies.
