Default Linkage problem 93 sport

How common is linkage problems in cherokee's? Test drove one that wouldn't go into park and would only start in park half the time, other half it would start in neutral. When I put it in 4 low and 4 hi it wouldn't get out cuz neutral and park would not engage. What's the cause and how's it to fix

Sounds like a problem with the neutral safety switch. Search how to clean the NSS.
