Went to leave this morning, car started up like normal. Tried to take it out of park to reverse out of the driveway, and won't go out of park. Just bought the car about week or two ago and have had no problems with it and I have driven it, taking it out of park no problem prior. Can't figure it out. Help please already missed my appointment today and hard to do much until Monday.
