Consumer Description
EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, WHEN I CHANGE GEARS, IT WILL NOT GO IN, IT WILL JUST FLASH. I SO FAR, CAN CHANGE TO ANOTHER SELECTION, SUCH AS DRIVE AND THE VEHICLE WILL MOVE. THIS HAPPENED ONCE IN MY DRIVEWAY, TRIED NUMEROUS THINGS AND WOULD NOT WORK IN REVERSE. I CALLED DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT IN. THEY HAD IT TOWED. AFTER ARRIVAL, IT WORKED. I WENT ONLINE AND DISCOVERED NUMEROUS ENTRIES FROM PEOPLE AS FAR BACK AS 2013, WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM, SOME TIMES IN DRIVE AND SOMETIMES IN REVERSE, LIKE MINE. SOME SAID THEY WERE DRIVING AND AT A STOPLIGHT. THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED TO ME WAS AT THE GROCERY STORE PARKING LOT, I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT, STOPPED TO BACK UP AND STRAIGHTEN OUT, PUT IT IN REVERSE, ALL IT WOULD IS FLASH. TIED UP THE PARKING LOT FOR APPROXIMATELY 40 MINUTES. FINALLY IT WORKED.
