Anyone else having issues with the dial style shifter? Mine sometimes doesn't come out of park and one time didn't go into park. I had jumped out of my car and didn't realize it wasn't in park even though I had turned the dial all the way back.

2020 similar issues. The mode button would stick in cold weather and get stuck in wrong drive mode. Took almost 3 months for get replacement, as it was a backorder situation. 5 days to get installed and programed. Dealer has to program transmission to new dial assembly. Issues are gone... but not is downshifts hard into 3rd. Dealer has asked to bring it back for adjustment. Got it covered it was a known failure of the button.

Honestly, the column shifter is probably my favorite thing about my SSV!

Along these lines, this is the closest post I could find but has anyone had the dash display "Shifter System Malfunction" followed by "please read your owners manual" and the service engine wrench come on? Was sitting in my driveway, in Park, shifted into Drive with the foot on the brake to pull into the garage. Never had this happen. More annoying is the fact that after I shut off the car and came back out an hour later to scan for codes, none are showing up. Not that it should matter, but I did just drive about 75 miles, just fine, and I was using sport mode just prior to this.
