2005 SL55 stuck in park?

Do these cars have the same problem?
Renee's car is starting to get hard to shift just like my W220 did.

Pretty sure you found the answer is yes, and you need to fix it ASAP with the metal lever, before it locks up with the plastic lever breaking...

All better now! The plastic piece was hanging on by a thread.
190.00 for the CNC'd replacement and two or three hours labor.
