Any ideas?

thanks
I have the same problem.As far as the car moving when in park,i was told that a worn out part in the trans.was the cause.As far as it not starting in park,that is caused by the Park/Neutral switch.I replaced mine but it still gives me a problem.It seem to be moving out of adjustment.
