Consumer Description
I WAS STOPPED AT A LIGHT WITH MY CAR IN DRIVE AND FOOT ON THE BRAKE WHEN THE DASHBOARD STARTED ALERTING ME THAT I WAS IN THE WRONG GEAR. I LOOKED DOWN AT THE SHIFT NOB AND THE D WAS FLASHING ON AND OFF AS WELL AS IN THE DASHBOARD. I PUT IT IN PARK AND BACK TO DRIVE AND THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND I PRESSED THE GAS. INSTEAD OF GOING FORWARD THE CARS WENT BACKWARDS WHILE IN THE DRIVE GEAR. I ALMOST HIT THE CAR BEHIND ME AND ALMOST GOT HIT WITH ALL OF THE CARS COMING FULL FORCE SINCE THE LIGHT WAS GREEN. I WAS IN THE DRIVE GEAR AND COULDN'T GO FOWARD THE CAR KEPT GOING BACKWARDS. IT WAS REALLY SCARRY AND YOUR CAR SHOULD NOT GO IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION OF WHAT YOU ARE SELECTING IN YOUR GEAR. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER BUT THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED IMMEDIATELY. I DON'T HAVE A PHOTO BUT I HAVE A VIDEO THAT I CAN EMAIL IN.
