How to fix a stuck gear shift in a Ford S-Max?

I recently purchased a used Ford S-Max and sometimes the gear shift gets stuck and won't shift out of park. Is there a simple solution to fix this issue?

First, try checking the brake light switch and make sure it is functioning properly. If that does not fix the problem, you may need to replace the shift interlock solenoid. It would be best to take your car to a certified mechanic to diagnose and fix the issue.

If your Ford S-Max has a manual transmission, the issue could be with the clutch not fully disengaging. You may need to adjust the clutch or replace it if it is worn out.
