Simply put, nobody seems to know what wrong with the car and its been at the shop more then at home. If the car has set for a while, when you use reverse, the car stops moving, as if you have applied the brakes. A new car and it isn't for !@@#. I always knew there was a reason I wouldn't buy a new car, now I know.
