Just noticed this yesterday while I was about to move my Jazz a few inches to allow more room for passage in our garage.

I was lazy to get the key from our rack. Thought I can put the car in neutral and just push it.

The RELEASE BUTTON cannot be pressed, however, so the shift lever would not budge from the Park position.

I did not force it, of course.

Nevertheless, is this normal? Because I could have sworn I was able to do it some time ago.

Will appreciate your response/s.

Thanks in advance.
