I bought the car used in December of 2002 with 28,000 miles. I had trouble right from the get go. I have had it in to Jim Lupient Olds (St. Louis Park, MN) 5 times. Now.....they say they found the problem......replaced brake switch twice because they thought that was why it wouldn't shift out of park. Now they have put in a new shift because the button would not release when you would put your foot on the brake.......therefore, guess who was stuck in the garage and couldn't get out until it decided to release on its own!!!!!

Well everyone, thank you for listening.
