More info would be helpful... but probably the bushing at either end of your shift cable failed if it's an automatic.

Sounds like two separate issues. Which transmission do you have? (Two different types of automatic went in these cars depending on the year) In my 05 when ether the battery was low or when the alter was near the end of life I would have random electrical issues with lights and the fob like you say you are having. The ECU doesn’t like to have the low volts/amps. From what I found out the early years are more prone to it then later. (My 12 is fine).

The OP is a 1st time poster and he posted this question about a week ago .. and has not been back to this thread he started.

My guess is that we won't being hearing from him again.

Another example of a "One Post Wonder" !
