I'm unable to shift from "park" into drive gears. This occurred when I bought the car new and the warranty covered it. RA told me how to bypass or use the release lever, and this is difficult and unreliable. What is broken and how much for repair?

Thank you for taking time to reply. They've told me it can be one of several things vs. my mechanic (away for weekend) who 95% of the time is able to pinpoint the problem.
