Safety Risk: If the transmission position is not displayed correctly, a user may not know that the vehicle is not in the PARK position. If the parking brake is not applied, this could create a risk of a vehicle roll\-away and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail.
