Failure occurs only on extremely hot days - temperatures over 95 degrees and only when all the windows & sunroof were completely closed. Vehicle was allowed to sit with the engine running and air conditioner on high for roughly 15-20 minutes. When interior temperature of car lowered, the car was able to shift out of park. The problem replicated sporadically but on at least 10 different occasions over the course of 2 years.
