Consumer Description
"SHIFT TO PARK" ERROR 90% OF THE TIME WHEN I ATTEMPT TO SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. IT IS IN PARK AND IT'S NOT RECOGNIZED AS BEING IN PARK. IT CAN TAKE ME ANYWHERE FROM 30 SECONDS TO 5 MINUTES TO JIGGLE IT THE RIGHT WAY TO GET IT TO REGISTER. PROBLEM IS UNTIL IT DOES REGISTER IN PARK I CAN'T SECURE THE VEHICLE. AND IT DINGS NONSTOP DRAINING THE BATTERY. I UNDERSTAND GM IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND DOESN'T HAVE A FIX. IT NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION IN MY OPINION. I'M STUCK IN A LEASE PAYING FOR A CAR THAT ISN'T SAFE FOR ME. IT JUST STARTED 6 DAYS AGO AND HAS ALREADY OCCURRED MORE THAN 2 DOZEN OCCASIONS.
