    I have the same problem. The dealer tells me it's the gear shift assembly.

    I can't get the shift to recognize park the release the key. The car stays basically on until I can finally work it out by turning the car on/off and shifting the gears from park to reverse and back again.

The shifter cable connects the interior gear selector to the transmission. This allows the driver to select the correct gear.

If what your saying is that the shifter will not move into reverse or park, it's a hang-up in your shifter and linkage.

If your saying, when put into reverse, the transmission does nothing, Then you have a trans problem. If the shifter will move to park position and it won't connect the pawl to the stop, that most likely is only adjustment of the shifter cable/linkage. Since you have the other forward gears, I doubt very much it's a problem needing a rebuild.

2000 Durango ran fine, parked, satrated and it
well a number of things could be wrong with this, first check the fluid levels to insure that there is fluid in your transmision, next check to ensure that the shifting bar from the gear shifter is connected to the gear box controler, normally it is a bar that goes down by the steering colume, try getting a person in the driver seat and moving the gear seletor and make sure everything is moving that looks like it should, if a monting brace for this is broken it won't work
