Started getting Vehicle Not in Park and engine wouldn't shut off. Dealership replaced the entire shifter and solved problem. Could not shut off the car today. Computer read Vehicle Not In Park, yet it was. Pushed ignition button several times before it finally shut down. Doing my homework leads me to believe its a Transmission Range Sensor needing replacement.
