## What is wrong

On certain vehicles equipped with a 5\-speed automatic transmission, a locking cable may move out of position over time. With the locking cable out of position, the shifter can be moved out of the PARK position even if key is not in the ignition.  This could allow the vehicle to roll and strike a person , object or vehicle without warning, causing personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will modify the locking cable system.
