Description of the problem | Automatic parking brake-selecting neutral for car wash with engine running, park engages by itself causing car wash rollers to jump the wheel that is driven. Very hard to keep in neutral long enough for car wash to finish correctly. This has happened twice partway thru the car wash with no input from driver. Has happened many times at initial placing into neutral, sometimes causing car wash to lockup, the car wash will not let the car go thru without a driver because of this intermittent going into park by itself. -doesn't always turn off parking brake when selecting r or d, as it should. This has happened numerous times while going thru a car wash, causing car wash to either emergency stop or going on under wheels . Dealer states that turning off automatic parking brake will fix the problem. Don't want to turn on and off every time i go thru a car wash. Dealer also stated that you can't turn off the feature that turns pb off when selecting drive or reverse. Statements from dealer are counter to the normal operation of the vehicle. This has happened more than a dozen times since i have had the vehicle. |
