Can't get out of PARK!!!!!!!!!!
The wife's 2003 PT Limited, less than 6000 miles, has had its' first major problem. The transmission shifter would not come out of the PARK position. The vehical was towed to the dealer. Anyone else had this problem?? Before you ask, Yes the brake pedal was pushed down.

Then move the shift lever to Neutral. You cna then start and move the vehicle.
That said, first see if you have brake lights. If you do not, then check the brake light fuse and bulbs.

I don't know how this is possible, but somehow the pressure of having the wheel resting up against the concrete like that ended up jamming the steering column. He could stick the key in, but couldn't turn it on, unlock the steering wheel, or the gearshift? He had to have AAA come out with a tow truck and pull the car back from the curb.
Anybody else ever have something like that happen?
