IF THE ENGINE IS STARTED WITH THE TRANSMISSION IN RANGE WITHOUT THE SERVICE OR PARKING BRAKE APPLIED, THE VEHICLE COULD ROLL FORWARD OR BACKWARD AS SOON AS THE ENGINE STARTS. THIS COULD RESULT IN A CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.rnCORRECTION: NEUTRAL START SWITCH WILL BE INSPECTED AND REPLACED IF NECESSARY.
