 The vehicle would not go into park and it was impossible to turn the motor off or take the key out, dealer found a wire which had gotten hung up in the shift mechanism, 5000 miles later, dealer found the cable and shift linkage hanging up under the dash, repairs were made and about 3 weeks later vehicle would not go into park again, consumer feels the transmission should be replaced. *yh
