Here it is:
Door was slightly open. Put the car in drive, started to drive, over 5-7km/h, the warning message comes up. Slowing down, it disappears. Increase speed again, and the warning message comes back.
A beatuiful detailed picture. like the fact that you can see the dashboard screen through the front window

Rollaway Notice
Thanks for your posting. I have a 2015 GLA, received that notice on my dashboard, but could find nowhere in the owner's manual about the door being open as a problem. I simply had one big clunk transmission noise when I put the car in reverse and I feared the worst. I tried slamming the door shut and the message is now off. Any time I hear the letter "T" as in transmission, I panic. I am a single female driver and fear the worst. Hope this car is not a disappointment. I had and loved
a Toyota RAV4 and was talked into buying this beauty. We'll see!

My wife experienced the same problem "transmission is not on P risk of rolling away". And I have to go to pick her up with another car. And as I get in the car and try, there is no more warning. And several days after, there is no more issue. So as you said, it should be the problem of door open or not completely shut off. Thanks a lot for all your info.

Sometimes the door latch can be faulty and this warning can show up even though the driver's door is closed.
