Description of the problem | Service shifter message keeps appearing on the dash and all of the lights on the shifter will turn red. Has been happening at least once a day (sometimes 4-5 times) and typically happens when i hit a bump (no matter how small or big). It can also sometimes happen when you tap the side of the console. Forums online suggest that the issue is happening because the wires from the shifter keep bumping into catalytic converter and shorting (https://www. Cargurus. Com/cars/discussion-t68742_ds990296). I am still able to drive the car when it happens, but it is incredibly annoying because i cannot see anything on the dashboard. |
