From Bob Sprock,
I recently had the shifter cable fail on my 06 Coupe.
This allowed the car to roll even though it was indicated to be in Park.
Fortunately, I applied the parking brake before there was a collision.
I was unaware this could even happen, so be warned!
Regards,
Bob
Thanks Bob! We'll all keep that in mind with our auto transmission cars. Angie and I have been driving 6 speed manuals for years and even with the new C7 Auto, we apply the parking brake every time. It's just a habit now.
