The car went into limp mode, wants to stay in park unless forced into gear. Several error messages, ABS, etc., came on. All this happened at once.

We need to start with checking for codes. This could be as simple as a speed sensor issue or more complicated like a wiring issue or control module. So we need to find out what codes are there and then start diagnosing these codes to find the issue.

Here is a guide that helps with that. Let us know what codes are there and we can send the info for them. Thanks
