WHILE SHIFTING FROM PARK TO DRIVE, THE TOP PART OF THE GEAR SHIFT AND THE CHROME "STEM" LIFTED OFF. I PUSHED DOWN TO PUT IT BACK AND THE BUTTON TO ENGAGE THE GEAR SHIFT AND MOVE TO DIFFERENT GEARS WAS STUCK IN. THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT MOVE FROM NEUTRAL OR DRIVE AND WHEN I PARKED THE VEHICLE, I HAD TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND APPLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. *JS
