1 Noises During Shifting problem

Failure Date: 06/27/2020

Hi team, there is a grinding noise whenever I shift my car from park to drive. It happens whenever I shift from park to drive/reverse or slow down quickly. So, I am concerned that there is a safety issue here. I feel really uncomfortable driving my own vehicle when there is something wrong with it. This puts me to think that this might be a transmission issue. The vehicle is under warranty and less than 100,000 km.
