2005 Pontiac Vibe doesn't know it's in park
One of the minor issues on the 2005 Vibe we just bought is that it doesn't seem to know when it is in park. When we come home and have put the car in park and unbuckled our seat belts but have not yet shut off the engine, the seat belt dinger won't shut up and the doors don't unlock on their own until we turn the key off. It's very annoying.
I assume there is some sort of a switch/sensor that I may need to address. Can somebody point me in the right direction?

If I couldn't find the answer I would take it to a Toyota dealer. The Vibe is just a rebadged Toyota.

if you're on Facebook, join the genvibe group. There's the genvibe.com forum also, but it's pretty much dead, lots and lots of info on it though. Vibes have a cult following(I guess a lot of vehicles do), some people know WAY too much about them. Now that you're part of the cult, you need to learn and do the Vibe "wave", post pics of Vibes you see while driving, circle parking lots and park next to another Vibe(and take a pic), plan your vacation around the yearly meet... I have an 09 AWD.

You need to reprogram the door lock function in the car's computer. Grab the owners manual and sit down in the car with it for a few hours. There's quite a few things you can do to personalize the car to your liking

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
