AFTER STARTING MY DODGE DURANGO AND TRY TO TAKE IT OUT OF GEAR, THE GEAR SHIFTER GETS STUCK IN PARK, IT WILL NOT MOVE. I HAVE TO KEEP PLAYING AROUND WITH IT UNTIL IT MOVES OUT OF PARK. IT DOES THIS OFF AND ON, JUST STATED THIS ABOUT A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO. TODAY IS 2/16/2020. YESTERDAY, I LOOKED UP THE PROBLEM ON YOU TUBE, AND FOUND OUT THAT I COULD TAKE THE BOOT OFF AT THE COLUMN BY THE SHIFTER AND SPRAY WD40 ON THE GEAR LOCK TO UNSTICK IT. I DID DO THAT AND IT WORKED. BUT WHAT IS MAKING IT DO THAT TO BEGIN WITH?

WHILE DRIVING, NO MATTER WHAT SPEED THE VEHICLE STARTS TO SPUTTER, LOSES POWER AND WILL STALL. I WAS LOW ON GAS, AND TOOK MY CAR TO A LOCAL GAS STATION FOR FUEL. AFTER PUTTING $10 IN MY CAR WAS RUNNING EXTREMELY ROUGH. I WAS DOING ABOUT 20 MPH, WHEN IT JUST SHUT OFF. BRAKES GOT REAL HARD. AFTER RE STARTING THE VEHICLE ALL SEEMED NORMAL. THEN, I DROVE ABOUT 3 CAR LENGTHS AND IT DID IT AGAIN AT A RED LIGHT. I TRIED PUSHING THE GAS TO SEE IF THAT WOULD DO ANYTHING, IT DIDNT. I DROVE ALL IN , ABOUT 3 MILES, AND THE CAR STALLED 7 TIMES. WHILE IN THE DRIVE THROUGH, IT STALLED 3 ABD AT ONE POINT JERKED SO FAR I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. VEHICLE SPEED DOES NOT MATTER , AS IT WILL SLOWLY LOSE POWER AND TURN OFF. I WAS DRIVING LOCALLY ON A CITY STREET. MY BEST GUESS TO THIS PROBLEM WOULD BE SOMETHING RELATED TO THE EVAP SYSTEM, QUITE POSSIBLY THE PURGE VALVE BUT IM NOT 100% SURE BUT THIS SITUATION IS VERY UNSAFE, I HAVE 2 SMALL CHILDREN AND CANNOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE.

MY VIN TAG: (XXXX) I REPLACED BLOWER MOTOR, RESISTOR, AND PLUG MULTIPLE TIMES ON MY 2002 DODGE DURANGO AND IT KEEPS MELTING/BURNING UP. IF I LEAVE IT ON LOW OR MEDIUM FAN SETTING EVENTUALLY IT WILL CATCH FIRE, I'M FINALLY COMING TO YOU TO SEE IF YOU CAN HELP. OWNERS OF THE 1998-2007 DODGE DURANGO'S & DAKOTA'S ALL HAVE THIS PROBLEM MANY WILL HAVE FIRES DUE TO IT AND IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THERE IS A FATALITY FROM IT! I WAS DRIVING HOME AFTER SNOW PLOWING AND NEEDED TO DEFROST MY WINDOWS SO I PUT IT ON MEDIUM AND WITHIN 6 MINUTES SMELLED A STRONG BURNING SMELL. GO HOME AND THE WIRING HAD MELTED THE FAN, PLUG AND HARNESS. I'VE CHANGED THIS PART NOW ABOUT 12 TIMES IN ABOUT A YEAR, LOW & MEDIUM SETTINGS CAUSE IT SO NOW I CAN ONLY USE HIGH FOR ANY USE UNLESS I WANT ANOTHER FIRE, 9TH TIME IT ALMOST CAUGHT BECAUSE IT WAS DRIPPING PLASTIC ABOUT TO CATCH WHEN I SPRAYED WATER ON IT AND PULLED CONNECTION ON BATTERY. MILD TO WILD ON RTE-34 IN ORANGE, CT WORKED ON IT AS WELL. REDACTE...
