Battery ran down, now car stuck in Park!
My wife inherited a 2004 Crossfire coupe, and while parked, the battery ran down. I charged the battery back up, and when I started the car, the alarm went off, and the shifter is locked in Park? What is the deal? I never disconnected the terminals, but did try pulling the circuit breaker for the alarm, to no avail. What do I have to do to get this car drivable, again? Thanks in advance!
Some cars will lock the shifter ( jamb) if the steering is loaded - under stress. l would try to rotate the steering and then check the shifter again, its worth a try. Woody

I understand from your statement that the car runs OK but cannot move.
The alarm requires more thought. Did you tell us all the facts?
The Owners Manual tells you how to do the above trick. You do have the owners manual?
