Consumer Description

FOR 2 YEARS WHEN PARKED I HAVE BEEN PUSHING SHIFTER FORWARD TO GET IT TO RELEASE FROM PARK. HAPPENS 50 PERCENT OF THE TIME. HAVE 26000 MILES ON CAR. CHEVROLET FIXED ONCE AND LASTED 100 MILES. RESEARCH INTERNET SHOWS ME MANY PEOPLE HAVE AND CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. EXPENSIVE CAR AND CHEVROLET SHOULD FIX THIS PROBLEM. NEVER HAD ANY CAR DO THIS. PROBLEM SEVERITY IS ENOUGH TO SELL CAR AND AVOID CORVETTE.
