Transmission NOT in Park

Recommended Posts

OK this is an odd one. There are times when I open the car door and the chimes go off. However I have never seen the dash when this happens, but my wife happened to be in the car when it happened a couple times. She said that alert popped up on the left dash screen every time.

 

Velly Strange indeed!

 

 

I still get cross traffic failures too. Aren't these computer controlled cars FUN!?

I get that warning too if I press ENGINE STOP before first pressing the P button. Thankfully the computer puts it in Park for me. Isn't that nice of it! :)

That I have seen, however, this is while getting in the car when it is not running. Weird thing, the MKT also did the same thing.

I've done exactly the same thing a few times shortly after getting my MKZ-h. It is amazing how smart these cars are getting.

And of course, I did the same thing yesterday! At least the message doesn't get snarky, it just says "transmission not in park" and then puts it there for you. It could add something like "...dumbass" or "...idiot" or even "If you're too lazy, I'll just do it for you".
