I have a 2013 escape. I left the lights on and drained the battery. After we got a new battery I could not shift the car out of park. Been to two mechanics both couldn't figure it out.

Maybe a bad brake switch, see if you have brake lights when the car is on and u press it. Also you should hear a clicking sound comming from the shifter area when u press the brake peddle
