 Has issues with ignition lock cylinder not being fully seated, that would not allow
 the key position to move to \\" Run \\" or \\" Start \\"
 
 If I place the key in the cylinder and lightly tap on the top end of the key...this seems to help \\" SEAT \\"
 the key to the bottom of the cylinder....then the key will operate as intended.
 
 Now, the transmision Park position will NOT MOVE or allow to shift to any other position.
 
 If I wait about 10 seconds, sometimes it seems that the computer processing \\" release \\" will then
 allow a \\" shift \\".
 
 Sometimes [ random ]....nothing [ time delays, steering wheel jiggles or motor re-starts ] will do nothing to release the transmission \\" PARK \\" position release.
 
 Any suggestions...?
 
 Possible transmission \\" shift sensor(s) \\" or relay....?
