| Description of the problem | I was in an automated car wash and the car was in park. When the wash was complete, i put the car in drive, but it would not moved forward. The proximity sensors kept sounding though there was nothing in the way. After shifting it in and out of gear, turning the steering when back and forth and pushing the accelerator to the floor for several minutes, the car finally shot forward out of the wash bay. I later called the in-car customer service line and they said that sometime the sensors get covered with the products used in the car wash. |
