When the steering wheel unlocks,the shifter sometimes does not..
Turn on key,see that the steering wheel is unlocked,then turn the wheel back and
forth till the shifter releases.If it won't release,the plastic component in the column is broken. . .Very rarely does the plastic break,it just gets worn,thus making it hard to release. . .Parking on a hill without the Ebrake is what causes this to wear. . .
Pull the upper column apart and replace the plastic mechanism and you will cure the problem. . . . . .

The brake must be pressed to shift newer cars out of park, if the brake light circuit has an issue it can make it impossible to shift out of park. Make sure the brake lights work, fuses ect. If the system is not working many cars have an override for towing, check owners manual.
