So tonight, driving home my no traction control light came on with my engine light. Wouldn't drive... RPMs kept going up... No propulsion, so I flip the hazards on and put it in park and push ignition to shut it down... Says it's not in park. start it back up. I went into drive and made it home but still says it won't go in park but it's in park. What is this?

That's a good one, it sounds like the gear range sensor might be out or the throttle body went bad but we should run the codes to see which codes are stored which can lead us to the problem, here is a guide to help.
