 Description of the problemMy son was driving my car tonight. He called me from his friends house and said that the car was stuck in neutral, car was off, but couldn't remove ignition key. I got there, car was parked in friends driveway, i started the car, was able to move the shifter, even though i couldn't feel it shifting into any gear. I then shifted it into what i "assumed" was park, shut car off, removed key, and car started rolling backwards. I applied the e-brake, but the car kept rolling. I went ahead and rolled it backwards out of the drive since i knew it had to be towed from the front end. I had to back my other car up to it, bumper to bumper to stop it from rolling backwards until the tow truck arrived.
