Automatic Gear Shifter won't come out of park without rocking the car
Basically have to force it into drive. Rocking the car from behind with help. Currently have it parked in Neutral with parking break on.
Any Ideas?

This most likely has to do with the gear shift solenoid. When you press on the brake pedal, you should hear a click near the shifter. If not, The plastic cover around the shifter should come off. a large brown cable runs to the shifter. Check its connection. If all fails, i've heard of a shift override on the right portion of the shifter that can be depressed to shift no matter what.
