Hi guys,
Well, just came back from a oil change. Worst experience ever since they locked my keys in there, they try to use a bar to unlock the driver's side (unsuccessful), then locksmith comes, etc. After I'm finally able to get back into my car again, I drive off, the car felt fine. I drove home which is about 2 blocks, parked the car, then discovered that my driver side door wouldn't open from the outside. I get back in, start the car, and try to go back to the place again to check out the lock. I put the car in reverse, then stop, and put it in drive. Problem is it won't stay in Drive. It goes up to N when I move the shifter to D. I try moving the shifter down to 2 or L, but it goes back up to N. I can use P,R, N, but not D, 2, L. It seemed tight (hard to push the shifter back to D-L. Now it would kind of stay in D, but easily gets out if I touch it a little. If I hold the shifter down in D, I can drive the car. I hear no grinding, or smell anything out of the ordinary. I'm unable to check underneath the car for leaks right now because it's raining. I don't want to damage anything so the car is parked right now until morning when I can get a better look to figure things out. There is no CEL flashing. Does anyone know what the problem could be?
