i had the same problem. once i got it out of park, it wouldnt go back into park. i had it towed to the chevy dealer, they told me the shifter cable rusted through and snapped. so $350 later shes shifting just fine. so theres something to check out...

Really all depends on what it is you are driving. Basic information on your vehicle is required before anything can be determined...

if you have the center console with the shifter in the floor there is a safty switch inside the column that works off the ignition switch and brake lite switch

if it is your shifter cable I would not pay $350. I paid $270 for my B&M floor shifter and it came with its own, as for installing a shifter cable alone isnt that hard.
