I'm not familiar with when Chrysler stopped using the brake safety system or if they did on that model. If you are pressing the brake pedal and the shift release lever is not releasing the shifter, you will need to open the console and visually check to see if when you press the shift release button the locking pin actually raises to release the shifter. If this occurs then you need to have the transmission inspected and the braking system. All of this is on the assumption that your shifter is mounted on a center console. If it is column mounted you need to have the transmission inspected. One other thing you can try, Even though the shifter is console mounted you can still make selection by turning the column just above the dashboard to shift between the selection. I know it sounds strange but sometimes this does work indicating that the problem is truly the shifter assembly.

I have a 2006 Crysler 300 tourin edition. It is stuck in par. Any suggstions? less tan 95,000 miles

There are several things that might be causing this. One is a brake switch that is bad. In most cars the brake pedal has to be pressed to shift it out of park. There is an interlock on the transmission and if the brake switch is bad or loose then it wont unlock. The same could be from a blown fuse. Also the interlock on the steering wheel if the wheel is turned to one side and there is torque against the shift lever. Last thing is parking on a hill can put pressure on the parking pawl and it wont release.

2006 chrysler 300 wont shifh into park ,any suggestions

The shift interlock device is broken in the shifter. If you can take the bezel off around the shifter you will see it. It is a pink plastic piece that allows you to shift in or out of park. They sell an aluminum one on ebay.

2006 chrysler 300 wont shift back into park

The shift interlock device is broken in the shifter. If you can take the bezel off around the shifter you will see it. It is a pink plastic piece that allows you to shift in or out of park. They ALWAYS break on these cars. The dealer will replace your whole shifter. But you can just replace the pink interlock device.

My crysler 300 - C is stuck in park and wont let shifter move i move the pink pin under shifter plate left and right and still wont shift

This car uses a park lock system, it is operated by the brake light circuit, so is if the brake lights are not on when the pedal is pushed the park lock will not released. if the brake lights do work you have other more serious issues **** as a defective lock solenoid. The owners manual gives the bypass procedure around this problem, check the index.

How do i get my crysler 300 -c out of park

Mos times the actual problem is either the brake switch or the solenoid that locks the shifter in place. Another possible reason is you are parked on a hill and there is a load on the parking gear.
If it is the brake switch or the solenoid the component would need to be replaced.
