## What is wrong

On certain vehicles equipped with a steering column gear shifter, the brake transmission shift interlock \(BTSI\) may become inoperative. This could allow the steering column gear shifter lever to be shifted out of the PARK \(P\) position without depressing the service brake pedal or having the key in the ignition, which could result in unintended vehicle movement, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace the BTSI as necessary. The Body Control Module \(BCM\) will also be updated.
