Can you give any more information?Like were you driving and it shut off or was it parked and would not start.As far as getting it into drive,or into neutral,in case you need to move the car by pushing it you will have to have the key turned to on position,push down hard on the break pedal and then you can move the shift lever.Thats all I can tell you without more info.Let me know what you can and ill try to help.
