WHEN VEHICLE IS IN DRIVE MODE AND MOVING, ONE MAY WANT TO UTILIZE THE "FAVORITE RADIO STATION" BUTTON. THE "START/STOP ENGINE" BUTTON IS LOCATED DIRECTLY ABOVE THE "# 1 "FAVORITE RADIO STATION BUTTON".AND DIRECTLY BELOW THE "FAVORITE RADIO STATION" IMAGE ON THE TOUCH SCREEN.WHEN DEPRESSING THE "#I FAVORITE RADIO STATION" BUTTON IT IS EASY TO ACCIDENTALLY TOUCH THE "START/STOP ENGINE BUTTON.THIS SAME RESULT CAN OCCUR WHEN TRYING TO UTILIZE THE IMAGE OF THE "#1 FAVORITE RADIO STATION" IMAGE ON THE TOUCH SCREEN. WHEN THE ENGINE STOPS WHILE THE CAR IS IN DRIVE AND MOVING, THE "DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER" DISPLAYS A "PUT ENGINE IN PARK TO START" MESSAGE. THE TRANSMISSION CAN ONLY BE PUT IN PARK WHEN THE CAR IS STOPPED. THIS COULD PRESENT AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION ON THE HIGHWAY!! *TR
