Leaving Your Vehicle With the Engine

Running (Automatic Transmission Only)

CAUTION:

It can be dangerous to leave your vehicle with

the engine running. Your vehicle could move

suddenly if the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P)

with the parking brake firmly set. If you have

four

-wheel drive and your transfer case is in

NEUTRAL, your vehicle will be free to roll,

even if your shift lever is in PARK (P). So be

sure the transfer case is in a drive gear

-- not in

NEUTRAL. And, if you leave the vehicle with the

engine running, it could overheat and even catch

fire. You or others could be injured. Don’t leave

your vehicle with the engine running unless you

have to.

Torque Lock (Automatic Transmission)

If you are parking on a hill and you don’t shift your

transmission into PARK (P) properly, the weight of the

vehicle may put too much force on the parking pawl in

the transmission. You may find it difficult to pull the

shift lever out of PARK (P). This is called “torque lock.”

To prevent torque lock, set the parking brake and then

shift into PARK (P) properly before you leave the

driver’s seat. To find out how, see “Shifting Into

PARK (P)” in the Index.

When you are ready to drive, move the shift lever out of

PARK (P) before you release the parking brake.

If torque lock does occur, you may need to have another

vehicle push yours a little uphill to take some of the

pressure from the parking pawl in the transmission,

so you can pull the shift lever out of PARK (P).
