I have a 2005 dodge magnum. I came outside this morning and started my car. it started right up. when I went to put it in drive it would not come out of park. the wheel is turned straight and turns with no problem. we tried to rock the car but it is still stuck in park. do you have any other ideas that you can give me?

your shift interlock system may not be working it is disengaged by putting foot on brake. check fuses under hood and dash. if no that check brake light switch to see if it's sending power.

This guide can help with the fuse panel location and identifications in the images below.

you have fuses underhood it shold be marked on the fuse box cover which is which but its fuse 19 in power dist box. if you have auto stick it may be the module so you will need it scanned.
