My battery is dead on my 02 XKR and my window is down and it’s about to rain!! I want to push it into my garage but I can’t get it out of park! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

There is a star shape screw to the left of the shift lever. Remove it and use the key or a screwdriver to depress the latch and you can shift to neutral.

Now you are successfully over the day's drama, time to consider purchasing a CTEK battery tender to avoid a repetition!
