Consumer Description

DID NOT BRING BACK THE GEAR TO PARK AND PRESSED THE START BUTTON. LEFT THE VEHICLE NOT HEARING THE VERY WEAK SIGNAL. WROTE TO MANUFACTURER ABOUT THIS DESIGN ISSUE. THEY DID NOT CARE, EVEN THEY RESPONDED THAT IT IS THE WAY IT IS DESIGNED. ANY DRIVER WITH EUROPEAN OR MANUAL GEAR BACKGROUND WILL MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE. THE CAR WAS POSITIONED ON A SLOPE, IN A GARAGE AFTER I ARRIVED AT MY DESTINATION. AN AGENT HAD THE REFLEX TO JUMP IN THE CAR (I LEFT THE DOOR OPENED) AND STOP THE VEHICLE. WITHOUT THIS INITIATIVE, THE CAR WOULD HAVE CRASHED AGAINST ANOTHER CAR DOWN THE SLOPE (VERY STEEP IN A NEW YORK GARAGE) AND GET THE WHOLE FRONT CRASHED AND THE OTHER CAR'S SIDE. BUT IN A STREET ANYWHERE, IT CAN JUST KILL SOMEONE! *TR
