Consumer Description

I have a 2019 Chevy Blazer RS with 12,350 miles on it. As you can tell I use it locally. A month ago I pulled into my garage, put the car into park, shut the car off & a warning came across the dash saying "Shift to Park". I started the car back up, put the car in neutral then park & shut it off. The message was gone so I blamed it on something I must have done. Two weeks later the same thing happened. I did the same routine and it fixed itself. This time I started taking notice. Last week it did it again. Today was the worse. I was at the grocery store and it took 3-5 minutes to fix it. I already have an appointment at the dealership on 3/20/24 for an oil change, tire rotation & 12-point check up. I'll be bringing this malfunction to their attention. I'll also be bringing a credit card with me because I have a feeling after doing some investigation that I might be getting [XXX] in the pocket book. I see some places say it takes an hour and costs a couple hundred & others are charging $500 & keeping the car over night. I also see GM has known about this since 2016 with the Malibu and Volt. How sad a recall hasn't been ordered for this issue. I've read it could be a $9 wire harness that can be bought at GM Parts Direct. So GM doing nothing over a possible $9 part? That's a sin! The constant chiming wears the battery down not to mention being the only person in the car who knows nothing about mechanics is a scary position to be put in. I saw 3 class action law suits have been filed so isn't it time for the Federal Government to step in and do something about this? It's absolutely absurd to allow this to continue now going on 9 years. I can't buy a winning lottery ticket, but boy if there's a faulty product out there I'll buy that. What are the chances of me, after fighting to finally getting an SUV for decades, I finally get the only Chevy in 2019 to end up with a problem GM won't acknowledge.
