Asked by GranTurismo_1254 Feb 02, 2017 at 11:14 PM about the 1999 Buick Century Custom Sedan FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My 99 buick century sat for 2wks because it
wouldn't start...crack...click...long story short it
wasn't in park. The shift linkage in the steering
wheel housing is broken. I have searched for
videos or pictures to help me replace whats wrong
but no luck. Anyone had this issue or know of a
step byb step that can help me. I currently have to
reach into my dash an push/pull the gear selection
rod an its not the most fun when in a rush.
