Shifter cable adjustment?

I have a 2000 x with a v10 it recently started not staying in park everything else seems to work fine. My driveway has quite the incline sometimes it seems like it doesn't engage in park and like to roll not very easy to stop when on an incline. I was wondering if there is an adjustment or maybe just needs cable replaced

Check the 2 bolts under the dash that hold the cable, very likely loose
