| Description of the problem | I have real problems with the "electric" gear shift. I cannot tell what position it is in. Latest episode occurred when i was valeting the car. I left the car running and put the car in park (at least i thought i did). When i opened the door to let the car valet take the car, it started to roll backward with me half in, half out of the car. The car came very close to knocking me down and rolling over me. If the attendant had not been able to physically stop the car it would have run me down. This is not the first time this has happened. You just cannot feel the "dedents" indicating what gear it is in. The scariest car i have ever owned. |
