Example complaints

““Shift to park” alert. It started after the car had 29,000 miles. It would occur occasionally but on Jan 4th of this year, I had to restart and move my car 11 times in order for the alert to be cancelled and I was able to shut off my car. I have been told there is no parts available by the dealer who has my car and they don’t know when the work will be done!”

NHTSA complaint #11566883, filed 2024-01

“When putting vehicle in park and turning the car off, getting message to place vehicle in park and car dinging. This started about 2 weeks ago and was intermittent, now it's every time I put the car in park and takes me about 5 minutes of turning the car on and off, placing in park before it finally registers the vehicle is in park.”

NHTSA complaint #11614773, filed 2024-09

“Bought last year in November. Starting having Shift to park alert when car was in fact, in park. Took me 5 minutes to successfully turn my car off. It happens intermittently and at first it was just one and done, now (after about a week) it's almost every time I park. It's very frustrating. I called the dealership and they can't get me in for 2 weeks. Unsure if they will be able to diagnose/fix the problem.”

NHTSA complaint #11608072, filed 2024-08

“My 2022 Trailblazer has had a shift to park issue. It’s hazardous as I have to constantly park my car in reverse to get the “shift to park” message off my dashboard screen. My car doesn’t shut off properly with this issue. My car is only at 19,700 miles. It should not be having this issue.”

NHTSA complaint #11573516, filed 2024-02

“For approximately a year, my vehicle sporadically gives a message when I shut it off staying it is not in park. It can take up to 5 minutes turning it back on, shifting through all gears, and turning it back off before it registers that it is in park.”

NHTSA complaint #11739793, filed 2026-05
