My car was stuck in park. No warning or anything wrong with the transmission. It had to be towed to the dealership. They replaced a $20 plastic piece under the gear shifter that had broken, $400 and 2 days later I had my car back. This is a leading trend for this model of vehicle and should be a recall.
