2006 Cadillac CTS no reverse after radiator change wheels locked only in reverse neutral and park?

If water got into the transmission, there is no telling how much damage it causeed to the pumps, torque convertor and/or clutches. I am sorry to say you are probably in for a transmission rebuild or replacement.

Why would a vehicle in reverse move forward

The question is a little vague but I think I know what your referring to. All modern automatic transmissions have torque converters. This is the device that connects the engine to the transmission. All vehicle manufacturers like the trans to be nice and smooth shifting. That's great but it does come with some minor drawbacks. If you are facing slightly down hill and you put your car in reverse but do not step on the gas slightly I can guarantee that you will indeed roll forward. You can eliminate that issue by holding your left foot on the brake while you shift into reverse. Then, as soon as you feel the trans engage, gently depress the gas pedal with your right foot and it will eliminate that forward roll problem.

Someone wanting to buy my 1987 ford bronco2 4x4 test drove it and brought it back towing it behind a pu. my sons have driven it for 6 years and no recent problems. we have never used the four wheel drive....

it sounds like the transfer case is stuck in neutral you may have to get under vehicle and block wheels and have some one move 4 wheel drive lever while watching it from under vehicle see if it is moving the shaft on transfer case if it is not repair it possible loose nut or pulled out of plastic grommet if it has an electric motor to move it from 2 wheel to four wheel remove motor and manually move shaft to get it out of neutral if it does replace electric motor

Left rear tire locks going forward but not in reverse

There is probably parts of the bearing that are rubbing against each other and jamming, lift the rear and move the wheel in and out (like shaking), also spin the wheel and listen for grinding noise, if it moves or makes irregular noise, your bearing needs to be replaced, if everything is tight than check your brake shoe pads, a dislodged piece may be jamming between the shoe and the drum(it happened to me before!).

Back wheels have locked up

Check the calipers for sticking, also check the lever where the e-brake cable connects to and makes sure the lever operates smoothly. You may need an assistant to operate the e-brake.

It sounds like a problem with the reverse gear and you're probably going to have to have a transmission shop look at it,I'm assuming it locks when it's running and you shift into reverse.
