Transmission problem
1994 Ford Crown Victoria V8 Wheel Drive Type unknown Automatic 183000 miles

I can start my car in both N and P but if I start in park I cannot shift the gear at all to dive, reverse, ect but if I partially turn the key(while car is off) I can shift it into neautral;start the car and shift from there but if I shift pack into park I have to start the car all over again, what's the problem? And how severe is it?
