Bad interlock switch or gear indicator. The dealer will have the part to fix and it could event be recalled as I know they recalled many Jeeps for the same issue.

If it is floor shift it has a soloind under the cover not to hard to remove, you have to memove the whole thing bolt in front cupholder and inside armrest storage. once it has removed there is a soloind in there that mounts on the shifter. this goes bad alot. Push the button on the silver soloind button this will release it into gear. Hope this helps. ( Usually he black soloind goes bad)

The end of the shift cable has broken, there is a plastic ring at the transmission end of the cable that breaks. You will need to have it towed to the mechanic.

My 2004 aztek will not shift out of park

Could be the brake light switch, or the shift lock solenoid.
You should be able to shift out of park by turning the key to the unlock position but not to "on". Make sure parking brake is set and crank in neutral.

check the brake light circuit (do the brake lights work), this is what provides power to unlock the shifter, it is called the brake park interlock and is one of the new DOT safety devices..

When you turn ignition on it releases a cable that is attached to the shifter also the shifter has a solenoid attached to it that is released when you step on the brake. Both times that I had the problem of button stuck and cant shift out of park the solenoid was sticking and wouldnt release .
