Hi there, I'm Al the owner of Big As Auto Repair

I look forward to helping you with your problem. Two possibilities, the most likely first. (1) The shifter itself could have an issue. Because sometimes the solenoid in the shifter quits working OR the release mechanism could be broken. (2) The shifter cable going to the transmission could be frozen or the transmission itself could have an internal problem. If you need further assistance go to my website below. Have an awesome day!

The gear shift is stuck in park. The wheel moves

Make sure you have brake lamps. The shift interlock solenoid is powered by the brake lamp switch.
