Shifting Out Of Park (P); Parking Over Things That Burn - Chevrolet 2007 TrailBlazer Owner's Manua

When you are ready to drive, move the shift
lever out of PARK (P) before you release the
parking brake.
If torque lock does occur, you may need to have
another vehicle push yours a little uphill to
take some of the pressure from the parking pawl
in the transmission, so you can pull the shift
lever out of PARK (P).

lock control system. You have to fully apply
the regular brakes first and then press the shift
lever button before you can shift from PARK (P)
when the ignition is in RUN. See Automatic
Transmission Operation on page 117.
