  • Trouble getting car out of park...

    It's weird, after I have had my car in park for a while (like when I wake up from sleeping) it is very hard to get the car out of park and into gear. Any suggestions as to what this might be? I have to pump the brakes a little and press the button on the shifter hard a few times until it goes.

    could be the brake switch. There should be one mounted on the pedal to make it so you can put your car in gear. I'd check the switch itself and the wiring going to it.

      My suggestion... time to start working out.
      There is fast, too fast, and way too fast. Way too fast is almost fast enough.
