What's wrong: A securing pin inside the automatic transmission control device assembly can come loose allowing the shift lever to be inadvertently moved out of the park position with the key in the ignition.

Why it matters: This could result in a crash if the parking brake is not engaged.

The fix: Dealers will inspect the automatic transmission control device assembly and replace it if necessary.
