X1

2016 BMW x1 has a key component (SHIFTER LINKAGE SPRING) and system failure per my local BMW dealer in Atlanta, Georgia -- it states: "Secure vehicle against rolling" when placing the vehicle in park -- even though the Parking Brake shows being engaged. The dealership agreed it is a common linkage spring issue that creates this safety issue however, they want to charge my family for a gear selector replacement. Everything still shifts completely fine in the car, the parking brake supposedly engages, and the car shifts into park fine however, know one at a dealership is able to validate that parking brake actually is engaged" That said, I live in a house that is on a hill and I park on the street each night....how in the world is this not addressed as a safety issue"
