GOOD NEWS/BAD NEWS!
I didn't get my Crossfire on Saturday so I couldn't take THAT Sunday ride. However, I was called by dealer & they explained that the body work is complete but they ordered a new gear shift assembly kit and it won't be installed until Tuesday or Wednesday. Of course I told them to take all the time needed so it's properly installed & I don't have any more problems. At this point, I can only assume that this may be a known defect and hopefully my persistence may save others the same problems and maybe even a fatality. Rich
