Silverado wont shift back into park

My cable sheath broke down by the transmission shortly after I bought my truck. Found out I had a problem when I walked into the gas station and someone yelled, "Your truck!!!" Luckily, didn't hit anything, but I did find out how hard it is to unlock a truck door while it's accelerating away from you (downhill).

I found the issue was down at the bracket right before the cable connects to the shift lever on the transmission. The cable could travel farther than it was supposed because the clip making it a wider diameter than the hole it was passing through disintegrated. A few steel zipties later and it's been there since 2011 with no problems. 😁 I'll see if I can get some pics.
Hi! Any chance on posting a pic or two, Jacob? I suspect this is the case with a truck that rolled in yesterday...
Thank you
