My 2001 Chrysler Voyager shifts into neutral while driving

My 2001 Chrysler Voyager shifts into neutral while in drive sometimes. Took to a transmission shop. No diagnostic codes are showing up. Also hear a grinding noise that is not coming from front brakes. Is this noise related to the trasmission and will this problem worsen over time to where a diagnostic code will show up?

I doubt you going to get a code from the transmission. Im surprised that shop you have it taken to cant tell you what is the problems. If you have high miles as 100k chances are the tranny is worned and need service or replacing. Transmission rearly grind or make a grinding noise, the brakes will make the grinding noise due to the worned pad as metal rubbing on metal, have all breaks check. If the van is 5speed, yes I can see the tranny will make a grinding noise VS automatic transmission. I would take it to another shop and get another opinion or take it to the dealer which they usually charge 70-75 buck to have it diagnose. If tranny need replacing check ebay to junk yard, is lot cheaper and as good than having it rebuilt.

Testimonial: "Thank you. I took it to a Chrysler dealership and am awaiting a response as to what they've found. Your comments were very helpful."

2002 Chrysler Voyager 3.3. Transmission won't shift gears from drive?

Question edited for clarity. 'year make model' first, 'want' and 'won't' are not interchangeable words. 'won't' = 'will not'.
Question moved to model category.

I just purchased a 2001 Chrysler voyager. Check engine light is on. Took to have diagnostics ran. Several for transmission. Drives fine except first gear. Wants to die and sputter. Also, bad speed sensor?...

Most likely on 2000 and newer vehicles specially if the van is still driveable it's the sensors. Get them replaced and if not working then it can be mechanical.

Something is wrong with your park shift interlock holding the key in. Your gear selector isn't reading the gears correctly because car don't know what gear it's in.
