Consumer Description

I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE WHEN TRYING TO MAKE A LEGAL U-TURN, WHEN TRYING TO PUT THE CAR INTO REVERSE, I STEP ON THE GAS ONLY TO REALIZE THE SHIFTER POPPED BACK INTO NEUTRAL OR PARK. WHEN MAKING A U-TURN THERE IS NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. BY THE TIME I'M ABLE TO COMPLETE THE U-TURN AND PLACE THE GEAR INTO REVERSE THERE IS ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I'VE BEEN BEHIND SOME BIG TRUCKS THAT DECIDE THEY WANT TO BACK UP. WITH A NORMAL SHIFTER YOU CAN QUICKLY PLACE THE CAR INTO REVERSE. WITH THIS SHIFTER I FEEL I'M GOING TO GET HIT. THIS POPPING OUT OF REVERSE HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SHIFTER. I LIKE THE CAR ALTHOUGH I'VE HAD TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR MANY REPAIRS AND IT'S ONLY 3 YEARS OLD. THIS CAR I FEEL MAY GET ME IN AN ACCIDENT OR KILL ME BY NOT BEING ABLE TO SHIFT QUICKLY ENOUGH. I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO UNTIL I GOT YOUR WEBSITE. PLEASE CHECK INTO THIS. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT WHEN YOU CAN'T PUT THE CAR INTO REVERSE BECAUSE IT POPS OUT. THANK YOU *TR
