2019 Chevrolet Traverse

The 2018- 2023(at least) Chevrolet Traverses have a recurring issue with the shift system: [XXX] The vehicle will operate as normal with this warning message leading to users ignoring the warning and potentially not actually shifting the vehicle to park before exiting the vehicle. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

When I push the button to turn off vehicle it dings and says shift to park. I cannot stop it from doing it. One day my vehicle did it for 45 minutes. I could not do anything lock my door anything this is a hazard what if I was out of town and someone tried to steal my car because it would not stop doing this. I see on social media this is happening to a lot of 2019 chevy traverse owners.

defect includes issues with the electronic stability control (ESC) system and the electronic-brake control module (EBCM). These issues can cause the driveline protection system to activate unexpectedly. when i initiate gas after a stop the "stabilitrak" alarms and sometimes emergency brake initiates. it is available for inspection upon request. your safety is at risk from alarm sounding repeatedly at recurring stops. you also sometimes have to release the emergency brake or parking brake as it is initiated unexpectedly. this happens at a stop to start or accelerate but while you are actively driving. the dealer cannot reproduce they tell the customer. inspected by dealer. stabilitrak error messages on dash when it occurs. this first appeared a year ago roughly 12.16.2023. it happens mostly when the outside temperature is cold like below 50 degrees.

I took my truck to the dealer back in 2022 for the specific reasons that the truck is being recalled now but my vehicle doesn’t qualify for the recalls. My vehicle has been having the same issues as the 2019 Chevy traverse recalls and I just saw that my truck is also leaking transmission oil which is linked to the 2019 recall but my truck doesn’t qualify. It started smelling like it was burning during the freeway drive today and when I got home, I noticed the oil leak I drive around 15 to 20 miles a day driving six children in my truck for safety and my truck is no longer safe to drive. I want to know why when I took my car in 2022 for the specific issues. They told me that it was pretty much all in my head that my truck was running fine and now I come to find out there are these recalls in effect, but my truck doesn’t qualify when the check engine light is on in my car for the specific reasons. I did contact the dealer where I took my truck in 2022 and they do have the paperwork to prove that I took my car and they told me someone would call me back to see what was going on. This was four days ago and nothing has happened and they also didn’t email me the paperwork like they told me they would.

1)Both rear TOW LINKS were found to fail state inspection and were replaced. The vehicle only has 22,000 miles on it Dealer said this a common issue with this model vehicle (2019 Chevy Traverse). 2) Shift to Park. Vehicle displays this error message and does not allow the vehicle to completely shut down, aux mode, which the radio stays on and doors will not lock. Have to start and shut off vehicle until the “Shift to Park” error message goes away. Dealer said wiring harness is on back order snd could not be repaired until parts are available. Dealer charged $178.00 for diagnostics and agreed there is an open and intermittent circuit causing this issue.
