lever out of Park if the normal

pedal and pressing the release
button does not work.
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Remove the key from the ignition
switch.
3. Put a cloth on the notch of the
shift lock release slot cover to

flat-tip screwdriver or a metal
fingernail file, carefully pry on the
notch of the cover to remove it.

release, it means your vehicle is
developing a problem. Have it
checked by your dealer.
