Why does the automatic transmission not come out of park on a 1995 Lincoln Continental brake pedal is pushed but the shift lever will not release from park position?
If the vehicle is parked on a hill and the weight of the vehicle is being held by the parking gear you may find that it will be difficult to shift out of park. I suggest using the parking BRAKE to hold the weight of the vehicle while parked. Set the parking brake BEFORE you put it into park, or at least before you remove your foot from the brake pedal. That way you are having the parking brake hold the weight and the transmission becomes the backup for holding the vehicle. It should be a lot easier to get it out of park then.

Do you need to use a parking brake when you are away from a short time?
In an car with an automatic transmission, you should be fine not using the parking brake. In one with a manual transmission, leaving the car in gear should suffice, but it can be hard on the transmission to do so. If you are facing downhill, leave the car in reverse. Alternately, if you are facing uphill, leave the car in any one of the forward gears (1st through 3rd-6th depending on what you top gear is).

What does the exclamation light on the dashboard of a 2000 ford focus signify?
A: All vehicle manufacturers are using a set of internationally-standard symbols. The exclamation light means "suprise...you've got no brakes" and more commonly,"your parking brake is on slightly" or "the switch that shuts OFF your parking brake light is defective/wire disconnected/fell off/etc." This switch should be on your park brake pedal or lever (whichever you have).Good luck!
Why does the right rear brake grab and pull down on the rear suspension when braking in a 1998 Chevy cavalier Z24?
If you are referring to the parking brake...they are suppose to, but both,the left and the right side should pull down. The adjuster inside the drum my have stuck and needs some lube on the threads. Check the brake shoes on the rear.If they are still in spec tighen the side that dont pull down because it is not working correctly. If they are pulling down using the foot brake loosen the side that is pulling down, you should not notice the pull down when using the foot brake.
