I was pulling out of a parking spot and when I put my car in reverse it jerked and I lost power to all the gauges. Then the windows lost power. The car goes in reverse and it moves forward sluggish but it starts just fine. What could it be?

A power supply source is being interrupted. It could be a bad connection somewhere and you need to have it checked by an auto electrician. If you are a DIY person, look under the hood for loose wire harnesses flying around.
