    I have a 2001 Honda Accord. The gear shift is stuck in park. I did locate
    the release and can now shift it, but that did not fix the problem...all
    suggestions are appreciated on how to fix the problem, rather than by pass
    it. Thanks.

    Is the P light on? If not on the signal from the range switch contact is
    missing. Bad contact. If the light is it doesn't pick the release. Try
    shaking the shifter.
    Switch on brake pedal also has to be made to release. You are pushing on
    brake pedal? Check the switch.

    Search this forum for the word 'key' as in 'can't get freaking key out
    of ignition'. Same reason as yours, usually. Follow the links to the
    Honda TSB's and adjust the shifter cable length.
    What's your mileage, is it worse in the cold?
