I wonder if this car had an after-market remote start system installed? I can't imagine that an official Lexus system would behave like this. I suppose there could be a defective sensor or something involved, but you'd think it would have sufficiently-tested failsafes.

- tastroder 7y agoIt sounds weird, even with after-market remote starters you usually have to either cut a cable (or similar) to explicitly tell the unit that it's an automatic car or go through a procedure in manual transmission mode that's designed to prevent remote start while in gear (a usual one is the remote start turning the car off when the door is closed to ensure it's in neutral and only allowing remote start from that state).
