Description of the problem	Vehicle engine was running when i came to a stop and shifted to park. I received an error indicating "action required - shift to park." i did not let off of the brake pedal because i was unsure if the vehicle had actually shifted into park. With the brake pedal applied, i attempted to shift to neutral and drive, then shift back to park, and received the same error. With my foot still on the brake, i turned the ignition off, but the electronics would not power off and the error continuously displayed on the dash. I started the engine and repeated this process multiple times with the brake pressed before changing gears again, shifting into park, then applying the electronic parking brake with the engine running. It was only then that i turned my engine off again, and the error finally no longer displayed. Since the error was no longer displaying, i could only hope that my vehicle was actually in park, but felt reassured that the electronic parking brake was engaged. Please investigate this safety concern that seems to be affecting many of these vehicles.
