I had my car detail yesterday and I noticed that on my dash board my OD light is on and it says OD OFF. Try to push in and out the button on the side of my gear and it work. But after awhile I hit a bump then it pop up again OD OFF. Try to do it again but the button is not working anymore. What's the problem?

It looks like the issue is the switch itself. Overdrive on/off light is only controlled by this switch. So if it is coming on and staying on or flashing there maybe an issue with the transmission. Refer to your owner manual for more information on the overdrive switch.
It's possible that a cleaning solution sprayed onto the switch could causing erractic operation of the O/D switch. Have you tried to press the button harder than usual to switch off over drive?
