Welcome, Teresa. Your problem is, I believe, fairly common with the ZF automatic transmission that your car comes equipped with... There are two bolts that attach the cable linkage to the transmission housing; these small bolts can come loose and the car will not move from park into the forward or reverse gear ranges. What gear does your car show illuminated in the shift quadrant when you move the level from park? Or put another way, does "P" stay lit when you shift into "R" or "D"...?

The technical discussion should continue there and not in this Intro thread.
