Read the owners manual for how to release the shift. There under the cup holder a small button that will release the lever but you will have to see the pic to find it and use a smaller than #2 pencil rod to press and release the shifter. IT can be done. IF you do this be sure to check and make sure you have brakes before you attempt to drive.

Sorry about your brake problem, but at least you know the problem.
