Yup everything I always do to drive the car....went for a drive got home, went to go out again and nothing. In the manual it shows how to disengage the tranny for towing.

I had the same issue. Once I got it into drive (after much trying and frustration) I brought it to the dealer and they replaced it no questions asked.

If you have Comfort Access try inserting the key fob in the slot located on the steering column (just like you'd have to do w/o CA). Then, with foot on brake start the car and see if that releases the shift lever.
