Hi - the above reference is correct, as I was one who had this happen to my 09 with 18K miles on it back in 2013.

It was the internal gear indicator in the transmission, which fortunately for me, was covered by warranty. It's a big job, since they have to disassemble the trannie. Now at 37K, the issue has not returned.
