you can only shift out of park with the key to the on positon and the brake pushed in. and u can only take out the keys when it is in park. if you need to move it with out pushing on the brake you can manual do it by inserting a slot screwdriver into the consul on the passenger side(u will see a small opening along the carpet)but u still need the keys in teh ignition to move it. unless your ignition is loose like mine and i can take them out while the car is runing
