I came home and parked in my driveway on an incline. When I came out to move my car into the garage it wont come out of park. The emergency brake is not on. I have a 2007 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer.

Just hold the brake and pull it out of gear. It's probably just the weight of the truck on the parking pawl. If the shifter feels real solid, it may be the shifter interlock. See if the brake lights are working.
