On certain vehicles, a clip that locks the gear shift cable to the transmission may not be fully seated. Over time, this could allow the transmission to be in a gear state different than the gear shift position selected by the driver. This condition could allow the driver to move the shifter to Park and remove the ignition key while the transmission gear may not be in Park. If the parking brake is not applied, this could result in unintended vehicle movement, which would increase the risk of crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the shift cable locking clip and reseat it as necessary.
