Vehicle shift lever device

A shift lever device (10) formed by a shift lever (12) made of metal being integrally insert molded with a lever base member (16) made of resin, the shift lever device (10) being connected to a transmission of a vehicle and provided for shifting the transmission by transmitting rotation of the shift lever (12) to the transmission, the shift lever device (10) having: an engaging portion (14) formed along a predetermined range of an axial direction of the shift lever (12) at a portion of the shift lever (12) where the shift lever (12) is insert molded at the lever base member (16), and when a predetermined load (F) directed downward in the axial direction of the shift lever (12) is applied to the shift lever (12), the engaging portion (14) enables the shift lever (12) to move along the axial direction and separate from the lever base member (16); and a plurality of ribs (28) formed integrally with the lever base member (16) so as to correspond to a lowermost end portion of the shift lever (12), the ribs (28) being lined-up along the axial direction of the shift lever (12) so as to be separated from one another by predetermined intervals (D).
