Consumer Description
I STOPPED AT A GAS STATION TO PUT GAS IN MY CAR AND, WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO PUT CAR IN PARK, IT REMAINED IN DRIVE AND WOULD NOT STOP. UPON TAKING MY CAR TO THE AUTO SHOP, AT THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR, THEY INDICATED TO ME THAT THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT CABLE WAS DAMAGED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH, THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE BY GM (RECALL # 14152). HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE WAS NOT SPECIFICALLY RECALLED EVEN THOUGH I AM NOW HAVING THE EXACT ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN LISTED IN THE RECALL. THE AUTO SHOP IS SAYING THAT I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR REPAIRS RELATED TO THIS PROBLEM. I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO DO SO. *TR
