It possibly is the brake light switch, this is mounted on the top of the brake pedal, check the brake lights are working? The switch is not normally loud enough to hear? Check the area around the brake pedal, make sure things like heater air pipes are secure and away from the pedal. If the brakes are ok and the brake lights are working, it has to be something fouling the pedal.

Testimonial: "I looked at everything under the pedal . The brake light switch isnt making the noise nor is the heater air pipes near it . Only things that could make it would be the spring to help bring the pedal back up. Could the unit holding or around the brake power booster cause the noise ? But it will go away completely on long drives ..."

SOURCE: brakes do not completely release at times,

Might be bad brake lines if front (the rubber ones). When they get old they collapse when you apply the brakes and they won't let the brake fluid go back to the master cylinder until the pop back open.

When I step on the brake I don't hear no clicking noise what is wrong?

What kind of clicking noise do you expect to hear? Applying the main brakes is usually a silent activity.
If you are referring to the emergency brake, it is the clicking of the ratchet when applying the emergency brake. The clicking is the sound of spring loaded metal teeth bouncing along a cog wheel. The action is similar to the teeth on a hand winch that does not allow backward turning. If when applying the emergency brake the sound is not heard then the spring may be broken or dislodged.
Does the brake engage? Does the handle stay pulled until the brake is released? If not then the locking of the brake is not happening.

Brakes with depress so gear shift can release

Your question is too vague. Brakes don't "lock".
Turn ignition on, but do NOT start engine. Step on brake pedal and you should hear a Click near the gear shift lever. This is the relay that unlocks the gear shift. If you don't hear a click each time you tap the brake pedal, you have an electrical problem - bad relay, break in wiring etc. You will likely need to have it towed to dealer for diagnosis/repair.

I would say that the grinding you hear is metal to metal, pads to rotors. You need a brake job NOW before this gets worse and more costly. Good Luck Friend.

you should hear a click from the solenoid when you apply the brakes. If your brake lights don't work, your shift lock release won't either. There is a bypass method for emergencies in your owner manual. Check fuse for brake lights. And switch on brake pedal

No breaklights and stuck in park

replace the stop lamp switch. It's right behind the brake pedal and it should take care of your problem. Double check it by listening for a clicking sound at the shifter when you step on the brake to release it from park. If you don't hear the clicking sound then its the stop lamp switch. If you do hear the clicking sound then you have two problems. The stop lamp switch and the shifter assembly. There is also a manual override for the shifter located right behind the shifter. Its the little spring loaded flap. Stick a pencil in there to release the shifter.
