Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD 4 SITUATIONS WHERE WHEN MY CAR IS STARTED, THE DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHTS VOME ON. ON TWO OF THESE 4 OCCASIONS, WHEN I ATTEPTED TO SHIFT FROM PARK, I COULD NOT AND THE POWER LOCKS STARTED MALFUNCTIONING. ALL TIMES THE CAR WAS STATIONARY. THE DASHBOARD READS CHECK TPMS SYSTEM.
