ANSWER
Don't keep driving it like that you will damage your engine by going over the proper rpm. I know something that could cause that to happen you must check your transmission fluids, if that's fine check the oil pumps because that's what clutches your gears. This happened with my Dad's van. It wouldn't change gears so I checked those things. They were fine but there are sensors that connect to the transmission that were bad and I got a new one and replaced it. That ended up fixing the problem. That may solve your problem. ANSWER The transmission may need replacing. If you hear a loud whining noise when you suspect that the transmission should shift, the servos are probably going bad. You should definitely check your fluids. Make sure you have your oil changed every 3000 or so miles and have your transmission flushed every 30,000 miles. When you are doing your self diagnostic by checking your Transmission Fluid, it should be pink and translucent. If your transmission oil looks like motor oil it is long overdue for a flush. If your transmission is not shifting properly and your engine temperature is going up, it needs to be seen by a mechanic. You also shouldn't drive it, if the transmission is damaged driving it further will make it worse. An important caveat, if your transmission fluid looks white and frothy, almost like soap, then your cooling system is probably leaking into your transmission system. If that is the case then your transmission will almost definitely need a rebuild.

Why wpould you hear a whining noise from your car only when gear engaged and accelerating not while coasting etc not really any noise on deceleration either it is an automatic transmission?
Friction in the transmission system may cause whining noise when a car is accelerating. A poor engine or clutch assembly may cause the excess friction in the transmission system.

What does the fault code p1942 mean on a 2000 dodgedurango?
P1942 Transmission adaptation, On a Dodge Durango the ambient temperature sensor is used by the DPLV, heated oxygen sensor circuit and a transmission fluid temperature sensor , If the ambient temperature is not rational in regards to the engine temperature sensor the transmission temperature will adapt to a substituted temperature value, this in turn will effect the 2-3 shift points on the transmission,
What does a temperature sensor do on a vehicle?
Modern vehicles are equipped with multiple temperature sensors. They are used to advise the engine computer and driver on the condition of the vehicle systems. Common automotive temperature sensors include coolant, transmission, ambient air temperature and engine oil.

it could simply be low on fluid. with the engine at operating temperature, hold firm the brakes while cycling transmission selector from park to "L" and all the way back to park slowly. open hood, with engine still running and locate the yellow or orange transmission-transaxle dip-stick and ensure fluid levels are between dots/lines on tip of stick
