Thanks, but I knew that. I mentioned that my post contained a reference to what he posted. The issue I'm trying to get resolved is the procedure itself. Everything I read or heard (even from the dealer) is that a panel must be removed underneath the vehicle and a screw/bolt turned there to put the vehicle into neutral when there is no power. His post contradicts that and I'm just looking to somehow resolve that discrepancy (but I think it won't be possible until more people have to use the procedure).

oh, my bad.

Hopefully this is a very rare occurrence so we likely won't get a lot of 1st hand experience.
