Consumer Description
I WENT TO A STORE AND WHEN I CAME BACK OUT TO LEAVE IT WOULDN'T SHIFT OUT OF PARK. SO, TO GET IT OUT OF PARK I HAVE TO REACH INTO THE CONSOLE FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE TO PUSH THE RELEASE BUTTON WHILE IT'S IN NEUTRAL WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON. I HAVE HAD TO DO THIS EVERY TIME I USE THE CAR. IT'S A SAFETY CONCERN TO BE LAYING DOWN IN MY PASSENGER SIDE--NO MATTER WHERE I'M AT, TO GET MY CAR INTO GEAR SO I CAN GET TO WORK, ETC. I SEE BY OTHER WEBSITES THAT THIS IS A ROUTINE PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL OF CAR. APPARENTLY THE WIRES ARE NOT MADE WELL ENOUGH TO WITHSTAND A FEW THOUSAND MILES OF USE. *TR
