I was in a drive thru restaurant and once I finished my ordered I was going to pull forward, but when I pushed the gas my car wouldn't move forward. So I looked down at my gearshift and it was blinky on drive mode, then I put my car on park turned it off my car then turned it back on and I was able to move forward. And also my check light engine light came on as well when that incident happened.

I leased my car 2018 dodge durango , I had it for a week and a half and then it started to malfunction. The screen on my car has been rebooting for about a week now leaving me with no radio, gps, back up camera, and all other emergency funxtions that come with with system. I got the car because of its radio and system. Now I have a $50,000 car and I cant drive it but I still have to pay at the end of the month. That is not right and I need some sort of compensation. This is ridiculous.
