“Shifter bushing cable - this part broke off from my vehicle back in july. The bushing connects shifter arm to transmission. Without this piece, my vehicle needs assistance to complete every single shift. When attempting to move from park to drive, I have to get out of my vehicle, open the hood, place the shifter down on the transmission arm, then shift the cart. To go from drive to park, I have to engage the parking break, get out of the car, pop the hood, reattach the shifter arm, then shift the car. …”

“I parked my car, turned off the push button ignition, exited the vehicle, locked it and walked into starbucks. Halfway into the store I heard a crash sound, turned and didn't see my car. It had rolled from where I parked it across a parking lot and hit a parked vehicle. It easily could have hit and hurt or even killed a pedestrian. When I got into my car I noticed I had inadvertently left it in drive. I take responsibility for not putting the car in park but I find it disconcerting and dangerous that the car provides no warning when that is done. …”
