Description of the problem | 2016 sle gmc acadia center gear shifting component level does not indicate what gear the vehicle is currently in. P,r,n,d,l all remain white in color despite being in a different gear; an improvement (perhaps a color change to the current gear) is needed. Gear indication is currently located on a 2 inch by 3 inch screen screen above the speedometer in the instrument cluster. However, the steering wheel is located within the average persons field of view of the indication screen, thus making the indication screen useless until a major body adjustment, up or down, is made. Poor indication of current gear and the size of gear indication need to be drastically improved to prevent accidental gear selection which would result in wrecks and lost of life. |
