Check to see if stop lights are working
Shift interlock and stoplight circuit are common
Check fuses
Check alignment of interlock switch at top of brake pedal
Try turning key to 1st position (unlock) shift to neutral to start and then shift to Drive
this happened to my 2006 Toyota highlander...look under hood...a piece of foam was stuck up under parking brake so it couldn't shift into park
Are you putting your foot on the brake ?
time to get a new car!
brake switch gone bad car will not shift out of park if brake goes bad
If you do not have your car turned on the vehicle will not shift out of park. You also have to have your foot of your brake.
My car will shift when i first go but wont shift after that help
its broken !! take it to a mechanic
whats wrong if my car wont shift to the next gear automaticly when its driving
Just turn the key to the first position, ( not on ) and then you will be able to shift to neutral and start the car from there. Have the fuses checked and check the shifter sensor on the brake pedal.
Align the shift indicator orreplace it. Your problem is strictly column mechanical.
you need to specify a make and model and year of car but i would start by checking all of the fuses in the fuse box
SOMETIMES IF THE STEERING WHEEL IS LOCKED YOU WONT BE ABLE TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK. TRY JIGGERING THE STEERING WHEEL AROUND.
