Error parsing get url request with year in url

It seems when the numbers 2020 or 24 are in the url passed to request, it will not return any data, as I believe the url encoding is breaking the url.

after googling for hours, I have tried to pass
$crawler->getQuery()->setEncodingType(false); $crawler->setEncodingType(false);

with no luck

An example of a non working URL is: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=2019-20+248+prizm+zion+williamson+ruby+wave&_in_kw=1&_ex_kw=&_sacat=0&LH_Sold=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&_samilow=&_samihi=&_sadis=15&_sargn=-1%26saslc%3D1&_salic=1&_sop=12&_dmd=1&_ipg=60&LH_Complete=1&_fosrp=1&LH_Sold=1

and an example of a working URL is: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=2019-20+248+prizm+zion+williamson&_in_kw=1&_ex_kw=&_sacat=0&LH_Sold=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&_samilow=&_samihi=&_sadis=15&_sargn=-1%26saslc%3D1&_salic=1&_sop=12&_dmd=1&_ipg=60&LH_Complete=1&_fosrp=1&LH_Sold=1

i cannot figure for the life of me how to fix this, I have tried urlecoding, decoding, a million different versions of the url, and the only thing different between the 2 url's is the keyword, _nkw param.

Thanks in advance
