| Description of the problem | This problem began in the fall of 2008. Typically, after shifting the car into drive, the car would not accelerate past idle speed, have a moderate bucking, all gear selector lights on the dash were boxed in, and an error message would read "service park assist system". The problem was serviced under warranty. The dealership checked wires and connectors, and replaced the bezel assembly on shifter. This seemed to solve the problem until recently. Beginning a few months ago, around the beginning of 2012, i am having the same problem with the exact same symptoms: all gear selector lights illuminated, no acceleration for 10-15 seconds, and service park assist system message. The problem occurs almost always in the morning on the way to work, school, etc.. It has never lasted longer than 15-20 seconds on any day, and seems to occur approximately one to two times per week, over the last 4 weeks. I have an appointment later this week at a dealer to check out the problem. But reading several internet sources, this obviously not an isolated issue, as there are many accounts of the same problem. *js |
