problem #2

Forester

  • Automatic transmission
  • 66,000 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

Once the car is stopped and put in park, I turn the engine off and cannot remove the key from the ignition. I have to move the gear shift back and forth and finally the key will release. It is very annoying when arriving to work and I can't go into work because I can't get the key out of the ignition!

Forester 2.5L

  • CVT transmission
  • 37,000 miles

The key gets stuck in the ignition even when in park. The only solution I have currently is to restart the car, shift the gears around and try again. It seems like if I really SLAM the car into park, it works. This should not be an acceptable solution to parking your vehicle.
