Is this a bug? I can turn off the engine on my 2007 CX-9 AWD while still in Drive!
My wife mentioned to me that she and my daughter were shopping the other day. They parked in a parking lot and started to walk away from the car when my daughter said: "Mommy, the car is rolling forward!" My wife had to race to get back in the car, hit the brake, and then put the automatic transmission in Park.
I thought "She must be joking!" so I tried this myself. Alas, she was right. In the driveway, I started the engine, put the car in Drive, turned the engine off, took my foot off the brake, and the car started to roll.
Please tell me this isn't "By Design".
