“Receiving shift to park error when attempting to shut off my vehicle. In December 2021 I had the parts replaced at the dealership, and as of a week ago the issue has started back.

NHTSA complaint #11606246, filed 2024-08

“Without warning, the brake pedal on my 2019 Chevy Blazer became hard, almost as if the car was turned off. I was unable to stop and slowly rolled into the back of a semi stopped at a stoplight. This was moments after exiting off of a major highway and could have been much worse. The car was taken to a mechanic and it was determined to be a failure with the brake booster. GM has issued recalls for this problem in several other models but the Blazer has been excluded. …”
