Shifting Out of PARK (P)
Your Buick has a brake-transaxle shift interlock. You
have to fully apply your regular brake to shift from
PARK (P) when the ignition is in the RUN position.
See "Automatic Transaxle Operation" in the Index.
If you cannot shift out of PARK (P), ease pressure
on
the shift lever -- push the shift lever all the way into
PARK
(P)
as you maintain brake application. Then
move the shift lever into the gear you want. If you ever
hold the brake pedal down but still can't shift out of
PARK (P), try this:
1.
2 .
3.
4.
5 .
Turn the key to OFF.
Apply and hold the brake until the end of Step 4.
Shift to NEUTRAL (N).
Start the vehicle and then shift to the drive gear
you want.
Have the vehicle fixed as soon as you can.
