Never heard of this one in that sequence. Maybe a shift interlock solenoid or a bad shifter. Needs to go to the dealer if this happens with every remote start and you are sure you are turning the key all the way to the run position after entering your vehicle.

decided to go in vehicle manual, re driver;s info centre and went out to car,turned key on &went thru info sequences till i came to PARK SHIFTER LOCK /UNLOCK pressed unlock and tried remote start and every thing works the way intended. the only reason i can see why it didn;t work,is maybe dealer forgot to check on pre-delivery . i certainly didn.t touch it as problem was there since purchasing car new last spring.
regards&later KEWATIN ps cancelled dealer appointment
