To let him know that his wasn't the first HHR that wanted to listen to the radio all day.
Seriously though, to let him know that there was no known cause/solution to this situation.

Glad to hear you got the key out. Hopefully the gremlins who were checking out your new ride went out to lunch...permanently.

Glad you got it to work, sounds like the tranny wasn't fully in park..do you have an automatic or manual shift?

I've got an 5 speed, so I'm not familiar with how the automatic shifter works. Does it have a button to push to move it from park to other gears and back? If so, maybe the little button was stuck. Grasping at straws here.

It's mind boggling because i took it out of park many many many times. I'm just hoping it never happens again.

This is why the reference to the other thread was given. Not only did I take it in and out of park numerous times, I even drove around the neighborhood going through all the gears.
