NHTSA Complaint #10464388 — 2007 SATURN AURA

I HAD BEEN RUNNING ERRANDS AND HAD NO PROBLEM WITH THE CAR ALL DAY UNTIL ABOUT 8PM. I PULLED INTO A PARKING SPOT AND TRIED TO PLACE THE CAR IN PARK AND IT WOULD NOT GO, JUST KEPT ROLLING BACK. I HAD MORE ERRANDS TO RUN BUT FIGURED IT WOULD BE BEST TO GO HOME BECAUSE I WAS WORRIED AT THAT POINT SOMETHING WAS SERIOUSLY WRONG. ONCE I GOT HOME AND PULLED INTO MY DRIVEWAY THE CAR STILL WOULDN'T GO INTO PARK, THEN I TRIED TO PLACE THE CAR IN REVERSE AND IT WOULD NOT GO INTO REVERSE. AT THAT POINT THE SHIFTER WOULD NOT SEEM TO GO INTO ANY GEAR AND I HAD TO JUST SHUT THE CAR OFF AND PUT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON SO THE CAR WOULDN'T ROLL. NOW THE CAR WILL NOT START AT ALL, I ASSUME SINCE IT'S NOT IN PARK! I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME ISSUE AND CAN'T TELL IF THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON THE SHIFTER CABLE/BRACKET BUT THERE DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE. MY CAR IS NOT STUCK IN THE DRIVEWAY AND I WILL HAVE TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A MECHANIC TO BE FIXED. I HAD TO FIND AN ALTERNATE RIDE TO DROP MY SON OFF AT DAYCARE AND DROP ME OFF TO WORK TODAY WHICH IS NOT VERY CONVENIENT!. *TR
