It appears that a component in the gear selector has failed to properly detect the gear selector position, specifically when it is in park. Even though the gear selector is in park and the parking brake is applied as indicated by lights and physically attempting to move the vehicle, there is a warning message to secure a vehicle with parking brake to prevent it from rolling. Therefore the functionality of this safety device, the warning message, has failed. The cost to repair this is extraordinary and will lead people to not have it repaired, unless it is repairable under warranty. Without repair, people will just ignore the message and then, if they were to actually leave the gear selector in neutral, have the potential for property damage or injury caused by the vehicle rolling. I believe this failure should be the subject of the recall.

Warning light appears: Secure Vehicle Against Rolling Error. I went online to see what the issue was and found that there were numerous complaints by BMW X1 owners who discovered that it was a $10 spring in the shifter that dealers were charging between $2,000 and $3,000 to repair. Many opted not to do the repair due to the excessive cost, a decision that could prove catastrophic for some. In the likely event that your agency is already aware of this problem, I am writing to add my name to the list of complaints in the hope that NHTSA investigates and perhaps orders a recall.
