Anybody ever have to use this screwdriver slot ?

My GF's RL really hates to be parked on an incline with the wheels turned even a little bit. The steering wheel and ign key (and I expect the trans shift lever) like to lock up tight. Even the best of techniques like turning the wheel a bit in the direction they are already in and jiggling the key does not work without a lot of fiddling. Have not tried rocking the car forward and backward yet. The RL has a powered steering wheel that motors itself out of the way when you turn off the key.

I notice a slot near her shift stick, just like on my CL. Is that to stick a screwdriver in and unlock things ?
