These vehicles are equipped with a mechanical override that could allow the ignition key to be removed with the shift lever in a position other than park. In addition, these vehicles have an override that can allow the transmission to be shifted out of park with the ignition in the off position.
- Actions
- Dealers will eliminate these conditions by disabling the overrides. Owner notification began on May 29, 2003.
