At least some implementations of a transmission gear shifter include a first shift member, a second shift member, an actuator, multiple feedback surfaces and a follower. The actuator drives the second shift member between a first position and second position and thereby rotates the first shift member from one of the multiple positions to another of the multiple positions. The feedback surfaces are associated with the first shift member, and the follower is movable relative to the feedback surfaces between a first position and a second position. When the follower is in the first position, the follower is not engageable with the feedback surfaces, and when the follower is in the second position, the follower is engageable with the feedback surfaces and when the follower is in the second position there is relative sliding motion between the follower and the feedback surfaces when the first shift member is rotated.
