This car is just over a year old, only 24,928 miles on it. It will not come out of park. I called the Smart dealership of buckhead, GA and they told me to try to "re-train" it by turning it on part way 3 times with my foot on the brake and then it would shift. Nope. I called them back up and they said that I was over my 24,000 mile warranty (even if only by 928 miles which is less than 2 weeks worth of driving for me) and because I did my oil changes somewhere else they won't do this as warranty work. (even though I told them I had the records!) how can a transmission fail within 24,000 miles! I am very upset I ever bought a Smart car from these people. Who would allow this type of "quality" out there. This is the worst car I've ever owned! and I will be happy to tell everyone about all the issues I've had with this piece of garbage. I have a Dodge ram that's 8 years old and has never had a problem! bad Smart car people!.
