my daughters car was towed 50 miles out of town, she lost key fob that starts vehicle by push button. Dealer needs car in house to have new fob programmed. Is there a way to get car into neutral in order to put on to tow dolly?

Hi,

There is an over ride on the shifter. I attached a pic below and highlighted the part to remove. Simply, remove shift lock override button cover using suitable tool, and insert suitable tool into opening to depress the shift lock override button

Let me know if this helps.

Take care,
Joe
