Consumer Description

I PARKED MY CAR IN THE GARAGE, THE SHIFTER WAS CLEARLY IN PARK, THEN I GOT OUT OF MY CAR AND WENT INTO THE HOUSE TO MAKE DINNER, AND MY WIFES DOCTORS OFFICE CALLED WITH A SUBSCRIPTION, I HIT THE GARAGE DOOR OPENER AND IT WOULD NOT OPEN, AND IT STARTED FLASHING, THE CAR ROLLED INTO IT ON ITS OWN, I GOT INTO THE CAR AND TRIED TO START IT WITH THE GEAR-SHIFT IN PARK AND IT WOULD NOT, LOOKED IN THE HEADS-UP DISPLAY AND IT SHOWED IT WAS IN NEUTRAL AND THE CAR WAS ROLLING FREELY. IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IN A PUBLIC PARKING LOT THIS SITUATION COULD HAVE BEEN VERY SERIOUS.
