after hit while in park, the car no longer 'holds' in park 200 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be Teal 240 on  Tue Apr 11 10:45 CST 2006 [RELATED]

This morning in a parking lot accident my 1993 240 with auto trans was hit while in park. When I went to move it after the police left, I noted that when I shifted into park, the car rolled freely like it was in neutral, but shifts into reverse, drive, etc fine. Is the parking pawl broken? When rolling in park you can sort of hear a click, click. Is this easily repairable? (I hope so, I need a better end to a bad start of a day)

Thanks in advance for your help,

Greg
