## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a change in the solution used for anti\-rust protection \(applied during vehicle assembly\) resulted in a chemical reaction that affected the foam that is used as a sound dampener in the shifter mechanism.  This may cause the foam to adhere to the lever lock, preventing it from returning to the locked position.  If this occurs, the transmission gear shift lever could be moved out of the PARK position without depressing the brake pedal.  Depending which gear the driver selects, the vehicle could begin to move forward or backward immediately.  This movement could result in property damage, or cause the vehicle to strike a bystander, potentially resulting in personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will remove the foam dampener from the shifter mechanism.
