Transmission problem
2001 Hyundai Santa Fe 6 cyl Automatic 96775 miles

I have a 2001 Hyundai Santa Fe. It has worked great but it had this problem since the day I got it. The problem is that whenever I want to shift my gear into Parking, I need to have my hand brake(emergency brake) up, otherwise, the car will slightly move foward or backwards, and the gear would be locked in Parking. I then would need someone to push the car opposite to how it shifted, while I am inside trying to shift the gear into reverse or any other. It's a rather rare problem and I cant seem to find the solution with the mechanics i have discussed it with. Please enlight me on what could be the solution for this problem.
Thank you in advance.
