Your shift linkage is probably bent or damaged in some way. Odds are you hit something in the road.
Not to ask a stupid question, but you are pressing the brake pedal right? It sounds like there is a problem with the safety mechanism that won't allow you to put the car in park or take it out unless the brakes are applied. Flick the brake pedal a couple times with your toe. sometimes the contacts on the safety switch just get stuck.
you ought to press the foot brake to shift out and in of park. examine to work out if something is obstructing the brake pedal. if there isnt then you definately could ought to interchange a factor or 2 close to the pedal or perhaps the pedal itself. there's a swap that tells the vehicle once you're hitting the pedal, if that's out the brakes will nonetheless paintings yet you wont be able to shift into park. get a haynes handbook out of your community vehicle zone. each little thing you ought to be attentive to approximately this could be in there. i could inform you intimately yet I even have merely worked on those factors in my truck.
sometimes you can go to a good car dealership or garage and ask them to please see if they know the answer to your question explain what is going on and if they are really good they can pin point it without even looking at it......good luck..
unless you have a good man that knows mechanics your stuck with a garage or dealership good luck
