So last week, I went to shift up from sport to normal as I was done having fun and wanted to cruise. Like butter, the shifter went right past normal into neutral, causing me to rev very high. quite the scare.
Well, today the same thing happened, only it slipped directly into park, locking the shifter into park at 45mph. Got to listen to the parking pawl banging around while having to roll out of moving traffic as I tried to get the shifter back into drive. finally came to a stop and managed to shift back into gear. Anyone else ever do this? With under 1k miles on this Ranger I am quite worried about the long term ramifications of this few moments of terror. Why on earth does this thing allow the shifter to move into reverse or park while moving??
