1998 Ford Expedition Repair Question

Asked on May 3, 2012

The shifter in my 98 expedition is moving to the "P" position but only occassionally engaging and able park the car. Most times I can not start it in "P", I have to start it in "N".

At times, when I park I have to put on the Emergency brake to make sure the truck doesn't roll. When I turn the key to start it, I have to shift hard into "P" or start in "N".

the cable may be bad or the bracket is loose under the dash by the column.
