Exclamation Stuck in 5th

Hey guys, ran into a slight problem yesterday. So im driving down the highway and i try and put it into 6th and it wont let me in. I put back in 5th and tried again with a little more force behind it. It just grinds a little and denies me. So I say **** it and say il just drive in 5th and look into it. So im driving along and it pops out of fifth. WTF! I put it back in 5th it stays in so I come up to a slow down, downshift to 4th and we speed up again i shift into 5th again it goes in fine. I try to go in 6th for the hell of it, bad idea. It went in a little bit but not enough to be in gear. so i try and take it out and put it in neutral and it wont go in neutral so i put it back and 5th and pull over. Now it wont leave the 5-6 slot. It will go in to 5th and half way in 6th. What the hell happend!? the car has 23,000 miles and is in perfect shape. I just drove it on a trip for 250 miles worked fine the whole way. I jst bought the car last week and the guy has extended warrenty and I trust him he had no problems since it work fine for me for 400 miles so far. Let me know what you guys think.
Thanks
Mark

Are you pushing over too far and going into reverse?
