Description of the problem | While backing up the vehicle stopped, bells went off in vehicle, the p light on the shifter and dashboard began flashing, a message appeared in the dash message center stating to apply the parking brake. I shut the vehicle off but only could turn the key to accessory. The vehicle wouldn't shift to park. The vehicles electrical system wouldn't shut down, i couldn't remove the key. While stopped i opened the owners manual to review the transmission section and it explained that if the issue occurs to follow printed procedure. Eventually i was able to shut down the electrical system. The issue is that this could been a more serious issue if i wasn't backing into my own driveway. This wouldn't turned out well if i was backing into a busy street. I have a video available of the lights flashing. I attached a still photo of the dash. |
