Question Occasional starting issue

2011 V6 with ~85,000 miles on it. Recently when starting the Durango it either won't start at all or stalls out soon after starting. Also sometimes when it does start it wont go into gear even though the gear selector is moved. This doesn't happen all the time but enough that it's getting to be annoying.

Any idea what to look for? Thanks for any help.

When it won't start, what are the symptoms? Does the starter motor spin the engine over but it fails to ignite, or does the starter not even attempt to spin the engine?

Have you checked for fuel pressure when it won't start or after it stalls?

How old is the battery? Have you performed a load test on the battery and confirmed the connections are clean and tight?

Is there anything else you've done to attempt to troubleshoot the issue?
