Details

What's wrong: The bearing sleeves can seize in the intermediate selector levers.

Why it matters: The transmission selector lever becomes increasingly difficult to move resulting in failure to activate the selector lever.

The fix: Dealers will replace the affected bearing sleeves of the lever with bearing sleeves of an improved design.
