Reverse is unsynchronized. The gear is either worn or the shift linkage is not letting the gear to fully ingage enough to stay in. Try putting the car in reverse using the linkage itself. If you pull up on the shift linkage, on the transmission itself, all the way and then push the lever back it should ingage reverse. Then start the car and try and reverse. If it still pops out its probably something internal (transmission) It also could be a worn engine mount allowing the engine/transmission to move to far from the shift cables and pulling it out of reverse.
