Default RXV Jerks when tuned off

I purchased a 2016 RXV that when you park and turn key off it jumps forward. How do I fix it?

When coming to a stop, the motor holds the cart where it is for a second or two before the parking (motor) brake engages. If you turn off the key immediately the motor shuts off and the brake is automatically engaged but there is a fraction of a second delay so the cart will lurch a little on an incline. At least, that is how interpret what is happening. On my cart, when coming to a stop, if I delay turning the key off until I hear the brake engage (about a second and a half) then no lurching. Not a problem on level ground.

My 2016 RXV does the exact same thing

I interpret this as normal operation and a quirk we just have to live with. Doesn't bother me, really. The cart is awesome, especially with Bob's tune on the controller.
