Shift to park. Dash stating "Shift to Park" when vehicle has been put in park, this results in being unable to turn vehicle completely off. Have to continually move gear shift and hope that it recognizes that the car is in park, this lasted over 30 minutes of trying to get the car to recognize that it was in park. This needs to be recalled.

When putting my car into park and turning the engine off. The car will not turn off and displays a shift to park error. The car has to be turned back on and shifted to a different position then put back in to park to try to turn engine off again. Often times this needs repeated several times before the engine will actually turn off.

My Gmc although not listed on the recall list has been effected by the "shift to park" issues that plague these vehicles. I was out of town and was unable to shift my vehicle safely into park without warnings that my vehicle wasn't secured. I had to disconnect my battery when I had to park in order to prevent roll back and endangerment to other. I took my vehicle for repairs and was told it was a common problem and nothing can be done but pay out of pocket. Why? It has the same issues as the others? Why can't I be recompensated for a recall issue? I have records to show it was the gear shift control and all other.
