This last winter I was sent out to get supplies "before the storm got really bad" and after a few stops I was unable to shift into Park from Drive, after a few minutes of driving around on cleared streets I was able to caress it into Park but it was definitely hesitant and "soft". After being in above freezing garage overnight the issue went away and hasn't been back since. I was in 4-High at the time, I believe, or I was in 4-Auto.

I'm not sure if this is a design issue or maybe I'm missing the equivalent of a heat shield somewhere but what do I need to do to my underside to make sure this doesn't happen again?
