This bulletin is being revised to end the need for feedback from dealer technicians. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 07-07-129-001 (Section 07 -- Transmission/Transaxle).
Some customers may comment on either of the following conditions:
| • | the key cannot be removed from the ignition. |
| • | the transmission gear selector (shifter) cannot be moved out of the PARK position. |
The results from the initial Engineering Information bulletin have indicated that the majority of the shifter assembly replacements are due to liquid spills, which may cause the BTSI to become inoperative. Technicians should continue to diagnose concerns using information found in SI.
A series of incremental engineering changes are being reviewed for possible future enhancements to the shifter assembly to prevent damage from occurring due to liquid spills.
