Consumer Description

PUT CAR IN PARK AND PUSH BUTTON TO SHUT CAR OFF AND MOTOR TURNS OFF BUT IT'S IN ACCESSORY MODE AND THE DISPLAY MESSAGE SAYS TO SHIFT TO PARK. TAKES NUMEROUS TIMES TURNING CAR ON AND OFF AND MOVING THE SHIFT BUTTON AROUND BEFORE IT RECOGNIZES THAT THE CAR IS IN PARK. IT STARTED A MONTH AGE WHERE IT WOULD HAPPEN ONLY ONCE AND WHEN I TURNED THE CAR ON AND BACK OFF IT STAYED OFF WHICH MADE ME THINK IT WAS HUMAN ERROR. THIS LAST TIME IT TOOK ME AN HOUR BEFORE IT RECOGNIZED IT WAS IN PARK SEARCH THE INTERNET AND SEE OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND GMC IS AWARE BUT NO RECALLS.
