I recall driving a borrowed Mercedes in early 2020, the car was maybe two years old, two door coupe, nice but not super sporty, automatic. As is my habit, one of the first things I did was put it in to manually shifted mode. I found with acceleration and braking, coupled with the inertia of the gear knob, gears could be shifted inadvertently. Insult to injury, that inadvertent shift could be enough to trigger a second shift, resulting in some extremely unpredictable vehicle dynamics. A stronger set of centring springs would have been all that was required to easily filter the noise from driver intent.
