The controls knobs for the radio volume and station selection, the fan speed and the transmission selection are all clustered at the front of the center between the seats console. All are similar rotary knobs and are close together. When the car is parked. You can not change the gear selector with out pressing the brake peddle. When the car is in motion. The gear selector can be moved from “d” drive to “n” neutral, to “r” reverse, to “p” park un-restricted. Example: as you are driving. You reach down to change the fan speed. You mistakenly change from drive to reverse. The car will start to slow down and stop. It you are watching traffic and you do not have the driver information display set to see the gear indicator. You may be confused and do not know why your car is stopping in traffic. There should be a detent (like all other cars I owned). Driving them you can change from drive to neutral and back while in motion. You can not change from neutral to reverse or park with out having your foot on the brake.
