Abstract
A manual park release device includes: a bracket; a pin protruding outwardly from the bracket; a lever pivotably connected to the bracket at a pivot point and configured to rotate about the pivot point in response to a pull of the lever in a pulling direction, such that a first lever position corresponds to a park range of a transmission, and a second lever position corresponds to an out-of-park range of the transmission; and a channel formed in a body of the lever on a side of the lever toward which the pin protrudes, such that the pin interfaces with the channel and is movable in the channel when the lever rotates about the pivot point.
