Consumer Description

I PLACED THE CAR IN PARK WHEN I GOT HOME FROM WORK WENT INSIDE MY HOUSE FOR A FEW MINUTES CAME OUTSIDE, WHEN I TURNED THE CAR ON AND TRIED TO TAKE IT OUT OF PARK IT WOULD NOT CHANGE GEARS. I TRIED IT FOR ALMOST 20MIN. I HAD TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON A FEW TIMES FOR IT TO WORK. IT DOES IT ALMOST EVERYDAY. YESTERDAY 09/14/2011 I HAD TO DRIVE THE CAR AWAY FROM MY JOB DUE TO AN EMERGENCY AND IT WOULD NOT CHANGE GEARS. I TRIED AFTER 10MIN AND JUST LEFT THE CAR BEHIND AND HAD TO GET A RIDE FROM A COWORKER. IF THIS WAS A LIFE OR DEATH SITUATION I WOULD LIKELY NOT MAKE IT DUE TO THIS SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM. *KB
