Consumer Description

I BEGAN HAVING TROUBLE TAKING MY CAR OUT OF THE PARK POSITION WHEN I PUSHED THE BRAKE AND ONE DAY I COULDN'T GET IT TO COME OUT AT ALL. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM AND TOOK IT IN TO BE CHECK. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A SENSOR THAT WAS BAD AND THEY NEEDED TO REPLACE IT AND THEY ALSO INFORMED ME THAT I DIDN'T HAVE ANY BRAKE LIGHTS WHENEVER I PUSHED THEM WHILE DRIVING. I WAS HAVING TROUBLE FOR ABOUT A MONTH LEADING UP TO THE DAY I COULDN'T GET IT OUT OF PARK. I WAS ABLE TO USED THE SHIFT LOCK OVERRIDE TO FORCE IT OUT, BUT I STILL DIDN'T HAVE BRAKE LIGHTS. IT WAS FIXED FOR ABOUT $150 INCLUDING PARTS & LABOR. THIS WAS VERY SCARY THOUGH BECAUSE I COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN REAR ENDED SINCE DRIVES BEHIND ME DIDN'T KNOW I WAS BRAKING. *TR
