My 06 explorer V6 auto 4x4 has gotten stuck in park twice now. My wife drove the kids to school, parked facing uphill both times and came out to find the car would not shift into gear. This time, all the dash lights were on, and the message center said check brake system.
Curious note, the heater fan did not work either time. The first time my wife pressed and released the e-brake repeatedly and then the light went off and the heater came on at the same time. This time she did the same process with no luck, shut off and repeated 4 times and then all the lights disappeared and the heater came on.
We are in CT, and it was -6*F today, and I'm pretty sure it was very cold the other time it happened.
Any help is appreciated. The car is operational right now, but its not a very reassuring thing to wonder if your going to get stranded.
