NHTSA Complaint #11254496 — 2017 CHEVROLET VOLT

THE DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THAT WITHOUT FIXING THIS THE VEHICLE MAY NOT TURN OFF. SINCE IT IS A HYBRID IT MAY THEN TURN ON SILENTLY GENERATING CARBON MONOXIDE. RECENTLY WHEN I STOP AND TURN OFF THE CAR VIA THE DASH PUSH BUTTON SOMETIMES(BUT NOT ALWAYS) THE CONSOLE SAYS "ACTION REQUIRED. SHIFT INTO PARK" EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE IS ALREADY IN PARK. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY, AND DOES NOT SEEM TO BE RELATED TO WHETHER THE BRAKE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED, HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN IN PARK, OR HOW VIGOROUSLY THE LEVER WAS SHIFTED TO PARK. THE DEALER TELLS ME THAT THE PART AND REPAIR ARE NOT COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY, OR WHEN THE PART WOULD BE AVAILABLE. SINCE I AM AWARE OF MULTIPLE DEATHS RELATED TO INABILITY TO TURN OFF A CAR LEADING TO CARBON MONOXIDE GENERATION, I AM CONCERNED EVEN THOUGH THE MANIFESTATION I HAVE SEEN IS A SPURIOUS WARNING RATHER THAN A FAILURE TO TURN OFF THE CAR. POTENTIALLY THE DEALERSHIP IS WRONG. I CANNOT OTHERWISE OBTAIN ACCURATE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, ITS SOLUTION AND ITS CONSEQUENCES.
