I am experiencing the well know “shift to park” issue. When I move the shifter to the park position and turn off the vehicle, I receive a message stating “shift to park” and I’m unable to fully power the car off or lock the doors. This is only overcome by trying to wiggle the shifter. The issue is intermittent and the remedy is not always successful. It seems to be happening more frequently. The issue began around 40,000 miles. I have contacted the dealership to diagnose the issue but the repair has not been completed yet.

My 2019 blazer when stopped and put into the park position would say on the dash shift into park so you didn’t know if it was in park or not , also it would not turn off the motor would stop but none of the electric would turn off until the battery ran down . Not knowing if your car is in park or not is a big safety issue and GM is well aware of this problem on many of its vehicles .

Initially received Stabilitrak dash warning when brakes were applied for longer than 30 seconds (ie., stop light) for several days with no SEL. Then, while driving along a secondary highway at approximately 60mph, all dash lights lit up, power steering failed, power brake assist failed, and vehicle started stumbling. Pulled to side of road and vehicle shut off. Performed restart and was able to complete drive home (approx 3 miles). Upon arrival and shutting off vehicle, all dash lights illuminated then shut off. Vehicle would not start after (no click, no turnover, indicating failed battery). Attempted to charge/maintain battery but battery charger indicated sulfated battery. Multimeter showd 7.5V. Replaced battery and car started normally but all computer functions were reset to factory defaults. The failure of the power steering and brakes due to a faulty battery is an extreme safety issue. The fact that the battery is only 3 years old and internally corroded to the point it can't be charged is both disappointing and an additional safety hazard.

The sensor or cable mechanism that tells the vehicle when it has been put in park is malfunctioning. It is not allowing me to park the vehicle correctly and forcing me to start and stop the car multiple times before registering that it is in park. Sometimes getting very frustrated and slamming into Park. I have seen many complaints about this error. The vehicle has less than 65,000 miles. This needs to be looked into and fixed by a recall. We've been very loyal to the Chevy brand and I believe we should not have to pay for the cheap part GM used and should not be failing within 3 years of purchasing the vehicle.
