Should this be happening? I didn't think you were able to turn cars (automatics) off while in drive or reverse. I have been driving a stick for years and I'm not used to putting my car in park before turning it off. So, a couple of times I have pulled into a parking spot, turned the car off, and got out the car. Then when I get back in my car, it is in drive or everse. Is this standard for the 9G?

The cables that go to the steering wheel may be off, I know thats how it is on my G, didnt cause a problem for me but you may wanna look into it.

for the 9g you gotta put the shift to park first before you can remove the key probably a security part, so see if you can get that checked just to be on the safe side https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif
