Consumer Description

WHEN ATTEMPTING TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE A WARNING AND ALARM PERIODICALLY COMES UP THAT THE VEHICLE CAN NOT BE TURNED OFF BECAUSE IT NEEDS TO BE SHIFTED INTO PARK EVEN THOUGH IT IS ALREADY IN PARK IT SOMEHOW DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THIS AND PREVENTS THE VEHICLE FROM BEING TURNED OFF. RESTARTING AND SHUTTING BACK DOWN WILL EVENTUALLY CLEAR THE ISSUE OR SOMETIMES JUST "TAPPING" THE SHIFTER IN THE DIRECTION OF PARK SEEMS TO CLEAR THE ALARM
