Consumer noticed upon starting vehicle park paw would not shift out of park. Dealer has been contacted. This happened on four different occasions. Consumer had to rock the vehicle, restart, pump the brakes and giggle the lever before it would release. When changing gear a scrapping sound was heard and Saturn stated it would get worse. After four times, consumer had it replaced at a cost of $#144.09. Consumer noted Saturn would not work on his vehicle maybe because he filled a complaint for shabby work.
