Stick shift is getting locked on park. how can i get this fixed?

When parking on a sloppy place, try enganging the parking brake before releasing yourbrakes and shifting to park. A slight movement while your car is in park may cause slight lock on your stick.

Where is the shift lock overide reease button on

should be able to shift when u press brake pedal, if not press pedal and see if brake lights work if brake light switch is bad this can effect the shift control. if this is not issue then the shifter is jamming and the stifting linkage is most likely worn or out of alignment and should be repaired
