Cannot Shift KIA Forte

2010 KIA ForteCannot shift from drive. KIA dealership mechanics had no answer for me they couldn’t figure out what is wrong with it. They said the only possible reasons are the brake sensor and/or brake switch but there wasn’t anything wrong with both.

I am guessing it is stuck in drive. This would make me think there is something wrong with the shifter, shift cable or shift linkage. The Shift Cable can be adjusted and may just be loose or damaged. Disconnect one end(C) of the cable from the transmission and see if the shifter will now move. The brake switch would only have an affect if the shifter would not move from Park.
