If it is is park and still rolls, your Pawl is bad. Neutral and Park are actually the same thing, the only difference is, that when you put it in Park, the gear selector moves a rod that enhances the parking Pawl. Pretty much a large wheel in the back that looks like it has gear teeth and the Pawl is a stub of metal that fits into one of the groves and locks the shaft from turning. They can brake. Always use your E brake on hills. I rebuild transmissions.

Why does your 95 dodge neon makes a loud clunk grind noise when you shift from park to any other gear?

Your probably letting your transmission roll forward or backwards after you put it into park. This puts pressure on the transmission where it stops and it "pops" out of park for this reason, making the loud noise. Apply the E-Brake after putting it into park but before you let off the regular break, it wontcontinue to roll.

Either your brakes are 'ground' or something is wrong with the connection between the stick and the wheels. Go see a mechanic or car professional.


Why does a car roll backwards even when it's not on a hill?

If you more specifically meant "why does it roll even after you put it into park?" its because the parking gears are sliding into spot. When you throw the car into park the gears attempt to push into their proper place, then when you let off the brake they slide into their spot, and theres room to work with so your car may roll back and forth. That's why if you have a large truck with huge parking gears like the Allison transmissions do the gears will produce a loud click as they literally fall into their designated spot and clang against the transmission's teeth.

What should I do if I have wiggled the steering wheel and is still won't come out of park on my 2000 Cadillac Seville?

I will bet that you are parked on a hill. If the car drifts backwards, it can bind the park pin in the transmission and make it difficult to take it out of park. Before you have it hauled off to the transmission shop, see if you can convince some friends to push the car uphill an inch or 2 while you try to drop it out of park.
