Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle transmission system that includes a transmission component and an electro-mechanical actuator coupled to the transmission component. The electro-mechanical actuator includes an electric motor and a solenoid that are configured to maintain the transmission component in one of a park position and a non-park position upon receipt of a command. The electric motor and the solenoid are also configured to prevent the transmission component from returning to the park position upon receipt of the command. Further, the electric motor and solenoid are configured to receive the command from a vehicle control system.
