You also might try spraying some PB Blaster, Liquid Wrench, or something similar into the top of the steering column, where the shift lever goes in. Stick the nozzle into the opening around the lever in a couple of places and give it a good spray. Hold a rag under the column. After you spray it pull the shift lever up toward you and push it back down toward the dash. It should move up and down a couple of inches. Do this 4 or 5 times. This will help free up any sticking in the shift lever tube. The reason the shift lever moves up and down is because it should be pulled back towards you to shift it into and out of the park position.

It wouldn't hurt to spray the bottom end too, where the shifter arm comes out of the tube.
