Description of the problem	Recall 16v-240: last night, i received a call while in the grocery store that my car had been involved in an accident. When i went outside, my car had run into the car front of me in the parking lot. The car was running, the doors were locked and the engine was in gear. There appear to be several failures here. First, the gear shifter does not move into a gear, but instead seems to operate as a toggle switch. So you never know for sure if you are in out of gear like you do in every other automatic transmission car i've ever owned. Second, when i pushed the on/off button, the car apparently remained on. Shouldn't i have at least been alerted that i had attempted to turn off the car while in gear. Third, i opened the door with the car in gear. Shouldn't i have been alerted again. Fourth, i used the fob to lock the car and then walked away with the roc, all while it was running and in gear. Again, shouldn't i have been alerted. I'm sure there were some electronic beeps when i did some of these things, but that's clearly not enough. My wife's car has the horn honk when you leave the car with the fob and the engine is just running. I think i should have received much more attention-grabbing warnings than any i may have received given the danger posed by my car still running and in gear.
