Hello Customer (name blocked for privacy)

It sounds like you have bent a bracket to your shifter control.

If you go to mechanic explain what has happened...he should be able to find problem quickly and make adjustment...otherwise the repair should be included in an insurance repair.

Please ask more questions if needed...I am here to help
