ok this is weird but sometimes when i turn on my car it wont shift and the heat wont come on ... then you hear a click and the heat will come on but it still wont shift unless u turn the heater off and even then it wont shift sometimes.. then when u go to turn off the car it wont go to lock it will just go far enough to turn it off.. just curious if its a relay or something its really weird

Take to most autoparts stores and get the codes read. You probably have new error codes in PCM.
