Gear shift was stuck after vehicle was turned on while sitting at a railroad crossing. When the motor was turned on, three minutes later, the gear shifter jammed. The consumer then placed the gear into neutral and restarted the vehicle. The vehicle bolted into another vehicle which was traveling in the opposite direction. The gear shift was replaced by the dealer.
