Problem for Chevrolet 2004 Malibu

2004 Chevrolet Malibu, V6, The spring on the gear shift cracked




By josecarmona on Sep 01, 2009

" "
I own a 2004 Chevrolet Malibu, V6, Automatic.
The spring on the gear shift cracked, therefore the car would not go into park. The problem is that when I shift to P, it'll not light up and leaves the car in "Neutral", so I have to use the emergency brake to keep the car still.

The gear shift works with difficulty between N and R, but fine for D and L.

This problem only shows up after a while the car is ignite, when it's cold, there's no problem.

How can I solve it?
Thanks for the support!

if you are talking about the spring behind the shift button then here it is---to remove shift lever knob, pry out locking clip on side of lever, then pull the knob straight up to remove. when taking off knob, button and spring should fall out!!
