Default Gear shifter stuck in park
The car is stuck in Park on a flat surface.. Yes I put the emergency brake up first before I put it in park and yes I'm not parked on an incline.. I need help on how to get the gear change out of park because I can't get it out of Park

1st i'd try rocking the car back and forth, if that does not work the is a manual release for the gear leaver, a button under the center console to the side.

When mine does that I just press the brake harder. You have to press on the brake to release the gearshift.

Check with the same name thread in the X350 section, might assist with troubleshooting.
