Hi,
Many possibilities. There could be an obstruction in the Gear Lever mechanism, such as a stone or the like restricting the Shift Lever movement. The issue could be with the Lock-Out Mechanism (Button) on the Shifter. There could be a problem with the Selector Cable and/or linkage. There could be a problem with the Transmission Gear Position Switch (mounted on the Transmission).
If you're not familiar with working on the Car, you should stop at this point and take it to a shop.
If you are comfortable doing some work, I would first remove the Interior Shift Plate and look for any foreign object or other obstruction down in the Shifter. Then check Shifter Lock-Out Button for proper operation - what happens when you depress the knob..?? Then, remove Transmission Shift Lever Cable at the Transmission and see if the Shifter then moves properly once it is free of the Transmission. Then, try moving the Transmission Gear Position Switch Manually.
I suspect you'll find the trouble in one of these components. Good Luck!...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
