Abstract
In a shift device, a shift locking mechanism drives a motor to perform locking and locking release of rotation of a knob, and an autocorrect mechanism drives the motor to change a shift position of the knob to a P position. Thus, driving of the common motor enables locking and locking release of the rotation of the knob to be performed, and enables a shift position of the knob to be changed to the P position, thereby enabling a simple configuration.
