Sense of cable issue. Get out of car to prove it and push the car forward or backwards. Sensor or cable not right and not seeing lock mode in Park. I do it for mine. Sometimes it won't start and I see -- instead of P for park. That's when I walk outside and move the car an inch. Make sure when you shut car off that the dash reads P for park and not -- even though you are in the park position on the shifter
