OB99W Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Depends -- are we talking Subaru, or something else? In general, it might damage the parking pawl, or whatever the pawl is supposed to engage. Or, minor or no effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OB99W Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Does it still hold the car when in Park? Can the trans selector be easily shifted out of Park to Reverse? Are there any new noises when in Reverse or forward gears? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hate to think what she could do, if she really really got mad!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamike Posted July 4, 2008 Author Share Posted July 4, 2008 he's still with her. this is not the first thing she's done like that trust me. the car still seems to run good and park still works. he just wanted to know if this might cause problems later.

Olnick Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 he just wanted to know if this might cause problems later. It most definitely will. He should dump her right now. Happy Independence Day all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OB99W Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 [...]the car still seems to run good and park still works. he just wanted to know if this might cause problems later.As far as the car goes, it will probably be okay. As to the relationship, no comment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 There is an interlock that keeps the car from engaging park over a specific speed. Its made for "incindents" and Accidental" park engagement. i'm sure there wil be other ways the car wont survive the relationship. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamike Posted July 5, 2008 Author Share Posted July 5, 2008 he had a chrysler cirrus before the subaru's very nice car. i never heard the whole story but she was driving that and some how rolled that one over. completely destroyed the car. from what i heard he is staying with her because he's afraid she will take off with their kid. i got him into subaru's and he owns 2 now a 90 ls sedan and this 94 he just got.
