Description of the problem | The gear shift does not engage fully in park when the car is stopped. This is an intermittent problem. If it is not engaged fully when the engine is off, the key cannot be removed and the gear shift can slide from park to reverse and neutral without pressing the gear shift button. It is necessary to restart the car sometimes two or three times in order for park to fully engage. Twice when the car was idling in park it did not engage fully and slid into reverse. The second time caused an accident but no injuries. The car has been serviced regularly and there have been no warning indicators to date. |
