Consumer Description

WHEN PLACING THE CAR IN PARK AND PUSHING THE OFF/ON BUTTON AN ERROR MESSAGE WILL APPEAR SAYING THE VEHICLE MUST BE IN PARK WHEN IT IS AND SHOWS THAT ON THE DASHBOARD AND BY LOOKING AT THE GEAR SHIFTER. THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IT SO YOU CAN TURN OFF THE ELECTRICITY TO THE ACCESSORIES AND BE ABLE TO LOCK YOUR CAR IS TO START IT AGAIN, PUT IT INTO A DIFFERENT GEAR, AND TRY AGAIN. SOMETIMES IT WILL WORK ONE THE SECOND ATTEMPT BUT MOST TIMES IT TAKES 4 ATTEMPTS FOR ME TO GET IT TO RECOGNIZE THAT IT'S IN PARK.
