Shifting Issue
My problem started yesterday when I got home. I pulled into the garage and tried to shift from Drive into Park but the shifter wouldn't go past Neutral. I used a pen to bypass and got the shifter into park. I was then able to get the key out. I played around and noticed without the key in the ignition or my foot on the brake I was able to shift through all the gears and everything works fine. As soon as I start the car again I’m unable to get out of drive again. I’ve ordered a brake stop switch and hopes that fixes the issue but I wanted to know if anyone had any other ideas of what my issue could be. The car is driving fine with no issues other than when I try to stop and put it in park. Thank you in advance.

I received the brake stop switch and installed it but the issue is still there. I read it could be a voltage problem so I fully charged the battery and that didn't fix it either. I am still able to shift to any gear without the key in the ignition or my foot on the brake. As soon as I start the car and put it in drive I am unable to move the gearshift past neutral without using the override. Thank you for reading and I hope someone has seen this before and can help me out.
