    HOLY SHIT, THIS IS WHERE MY NISSAN PATHFINDER GOT THIS SHIT FROM??? I hate it with a passion. The worst is going through an automatic car wash and HOPING it actually shifts into neutral. And then once it does shift into neutral, it beeps a warning on the dashboard and tells you how to exit the vehicle while in neutral. JUST LET ME SHIFT THE FUCKING THING LIKE A NORMAL VEHICLE AND YOU WOULDN’T HAVE TO DO THAT. I only drive it for work, and I swear I will never buy a personal vehicle newer than 2008 ever again.

    ETA: You wanna guess how to guarantee it shifts into neutral? “Shift” into park, DON’T press the side button, which for some reason mechanically blocks the shifter from going into the reverse position only, and then move it towards the reverse position. If you move it in the other direction, there’s nothing preventing you from shifting back into drive.
