Will there be any problem if I forget to step on the brake when shifting to P gear?

Forgetting to step on the brake once when shifting to P gear will not have much impact on the car, but doing so for a long time can damage the car's transmission. The correct parking steps should be: 1. Step on the brake to stop the car; 2. Shift the gear to N gear; 3. Tighten the handbrake; 4. Turn off the engine; 5. Shift to P gear. P gear is also called the parking gear, which relies on the power of the engine to brake the vehicle. When the gear is shifted to P gear, there will be a locking gear in the automatic transmission to lock the transmission. Therefore, when shifting to P gear, any movement of the wheels can easily cause the locking gear to break, and even seriously affect the transmission.
