I had I issue with my car shifting from Drive to neutral itself. Complained a couple of times about it but they said there is no code for that. One year after they said they have a code for them. A week after they reprogrammed it, on day I was parking at the driveway and my brakes didn't work neither my forward collision warning or my Automatic Emergency Braking.
On several occasions the vehicle shifted by itself from D to N. Leaving you stuck until you shifted into P then back to D. This is scary and potentially dangerous. Dealer has only a service bulletin, so if you complain they can hopefully fix it. But, this is dangerous should have a recall.
