2016 Smart car passion key stuck in switch. Stationary in park gear. Poor design of shifter, if that easily disabled. Should be recalled and replaced with improved design shifter. If that sensitive why do they put 2 cup holders near the shifter? Simple rubber seal would fix it! The service mechanic said the shifter was damaged because of a coffee spill - how long does it take - because any stain was years ago when I got the car. I have not drunk any in the car over a year. To save money I make coffee at home and...

Engine light flashed briefly and went off. Within one mile engine lost all power. As I slowed to a stop, a large cloud of steam erupted. Car was in shop for over a month and most of the engine was replaced. No explanation of lack of warning lamps. A second two week trip to the dealer was needed to resolve all the issues. Car still has engine light on
