Consumer Description

Defective shifter. Vehicle is automatically shifting in Park while in drive causing vehicle to stop moving while driving, in traffic or at a stop light. Vehicle accelerated and cut off in the middle of an intersection and almost got rear ended because vehicle would not move. When shifting to drive again it immediately switched to park stranded me in the middle of on coming traffic. This is horrific especially if it would happen on an interstate. This happened also at a gas station putting the truck in reverse backed a little bit than automatically shifted to park stranding me in the middle of the parking lot. I had to turn off the truck and start it to shift back in gear. The truck shifted by it self multiple times. This safety issue could be detrimental. I was scared to continue driving my truck. Turning in front of someone had me nervous because when I tried to accelerate the truck shifted in to park and stopped moving multiple times. Reaching the internet to find out why. I found multiple people had the same issues. This need to be fixed before it cost the life of someone
