Description of the problem | I've had 3 crashes because of the electronic gear shifter. Crash #1) i pulled over to use my phone i put the car in park only to heard a thump. I hit the benz in front of me damaging both my car and the mercedes benz. Crash #2 i backed into a parking space put the car in park and went to the trunk to get some bottled water if i had jumped out of the way i would have been pinned against a brick wall. Crashed #3) the car ran into a fence after i put it in park and got out. Causing further damage to the front bumper. It's just a matter of time before someone get seriously hurt or killed because of this weird gear shifter. Because the stick jums back to the center you never know what gear you're in. |
