RJ-0959-1

The rubber in the automatic transmission mount may get damaged from heat degradation caused by long idling etc., due to its poor heat resistance. If left unfixed, in the worst case, the control lever of the automatic transmission interferes with the battery tray bracket. As a result, it may become impossible to shift to the P range, and the ignition key can not be pulled out.
