I'm catching up on email from vacation, so this may not be a current issue
but... If they're seeing all the PRNDL indicators lit up, it's in a limp
mode and will need to have the trans codes pulled. Probably an issue in the
trans position switch, pretty common failure on these cars. It's a CEZ
trans? Don't drive it far like this, it's always a bummer when the trans pos
switch selects reverse when you're going forward!
