How do you open a car gear lock?
How do I take the shift lock off my car? My car won't start up and it's in my garage. I want to shift it into neutral so I can push it out for the tow truck.

“To open your car gear lock, simply press your key into the pinhole while moving the shift knob. This will allow you to switch the car to neutral so you can push it out of the garage.
Keep in mind that if your car insurance policy includes
towing and labor coverage
, it may cover the cost of the tow. And if not, consider switching providers.With the
Jerry
app, shopping around for better car insurance is a cinch. Jerry will provide you with competitive quotes in under a minute. Swapping is just as effortless. Jerry takes care of all the paperwork and phone calls and can even assist you in cancelling your old policy.”View full answer
