This vehicle will let you shut the engine off in drive without shifting to park. If you do this and leave the vehicle on a slight incline, it will roll away and you may not be able to get back to it and into it in time to get your foot on the brake and then shift it into park. This should not be allowed. You should have to shift to park before the engine can be turned off.
