My car is 2006 Mercury Mountaineer in 2007 already the shift had to be replaced as it continually got stuck.

The dealer said it was a shift solenoid I had it replaced a transmission flush and reprogram and still the same problem the car only has 62,000 miles.
The contact owns a 2006 Mercury Mountaineer. The contact stated that when the gear was shifted from drive to park the vehicle did not move.
