Question: Shifter does not go into Park

Question

Visitor, North Ridgeville, OH, March 10, 2011, 14:42

Even though the car is in park the indicator reads "R" and the car will not start, After wiggleing it around sometimes it will read "N" and will start there. Sometime it will shift into ather gears and finally start in neutral. After driving for a while it will work fine and actually go into park. Sometimes it will start in park but not let me shift into gear. It continually is getting worse. Could this be some kind of switch or something??? Thanks

    Could have been a bent or misaligned shift selector link. It could be easily checked and aligned on a lift.
