Reported risk: On certain P3 vehicles with i-beam front suspensions and automatic transmissions, the shift lever may not drop into the "park" detent when placed into the "park" position. This would allow the shift lever to move from "park" to "reverse" without the operator having to lift the shift lever and could result in the transmission being placed in reverse gear unintentionally. This could cause a vehicle crash without prior warning. Correction: Vehicles will be inspected and shift linkage and steering column will be adjusted if necessary. If adjustment is ineffective, the upper steering column bracket will be replaced.
