 Description of the problemEngine shuddered and stopped while in park. Tried to restart, but would not start (electrical was fine). Had it towed and fuel injector replaced. Drove for approximately 75 miles and acceleration ceased on busy highway at 70mph. When able to pull over and stop, would not go into park (even though shifter indicated that it was in park). Dashboard indicated that my speed was too high to shift (i do not recall the full message) and it began to roll backwards into traffic. I turned it off and it stopped rolling. Tow truck said he had difficulty putting it in neutral. Prior to failure to accelerate, there was a heavy rumbling sound when gas pedal pushed; then it sounded like small parts were falling off of the engine; then grinding sound but no acceleration. I saw a brief message about 4wheel drive, but was trying to get to safety, so i do not know what it said. I had a passenger and toddler in the car. Frightening!
