2022 Chevrolet Traverse

Shift to park issue- on a weekly basis shift to park shows up on my vehicle. The only way to fix the issue is reverse multiple times put vehicle in drive and then park hoping the issue will resolve on its own. At times it does not and I have to retry the method on most cases it does resolve after a few minutes but the issue occurs again a few days later. •Vehicle is available for inspection, I have brought my vehicle to the dealership but they won’t fix the issue until I pay for services and I am unable to at this time. •Safety is at risk because If your vehicle is already parked and it still states "shift to park," it could indicate a malfunction in the vehicle's electronic systems also this could potentially lead to unexpected issues, such as the vehicle rolling away if the parking mechanism fails. •This vehicle has been inspected by the dealership during oil changes and they have been made aware of this current issue with the vehicle. •No warring displays besides the notification of shift to park.

When car is parked and shifted to park, an error message appears (SHIFT TO PARK). The SHIFT TO PART error message does not allow vehicle to exit auxiliary feature. The battery will drain if not completely shut off. The vehicle was taken to Dyer Chevrolet in Vero Beach, FL for repair. The dealer replaced shift control and harness to correct issue.

When parking vehicle and putting shifter in park, an audible alarm was dinging and the dash board was flashing shift to park. It was already in park. I did some things and it stopped. Many times I have my 7 grandchildren in the car with me. This has happened more than once and I feel its unsafe to exit my car until I get it to stop. I don’t know whats causing it. My husband said it happen to him too.

I purchased a 2022 Traverse in December 2021 and it just hit 40,000 miles. Now the shift to park error code keeps showing up when placed in park. I have to turn on/off multiple times and try shifting to and from park. It has been consistently erroring out over the last 2 weeks. I believe this is a safety issue due to the fact that it appears it's not going into park. This should absolutely be considered for a safety recall issue on these vehicle, cause my understanding is that this is happening in many Chevrolet Traverses and Acadias. I was given a quote of $275 for repair.

About 1 week ago, I began getting "Shift To Park" warnings/notifications when I would park the car and turn off the engine. To make it stop, I usually have to turn the car back on, shift to a different gear, shift back to Park, wiggle the gear shift around side to side and back and forth within the Park gear. Sometimes it will have remedied when I attempt to turn the car off the second time, and other times I need to do the same procedure again. In looking it up online, this is a known issue, and an ongoing issue, with GM vehicles over the past several years with no fix or attention to mandate a correction. This seems to effect GM vehicles of multiple models and can allow the vehicle to roll (and my driveway is a small hill on the top of the hill/cul d' sac that we live in). When it fails to recognize the vehicle is in Park, I cannot exit the car, the alerts and chimes continue and would ultimately drain my battery if it failed to recognize that it was in Park. I do have an appointment scheduled for the dealership to check since I am under warranty still. My vehicle only has less than 29,000 miles and is not driven on rough or challenging terrain, with local drives of less than 10 miles generally. Only 1 driver for this vehicle as well.

Wife was driving my kids to school this am. Driving up a slight hill on a speed limit 55 road vehicle started slowing down and wouldn’t accelerate. Stopped for a traffic light and it very slowly accelerated like a manual transmission stuck in a higher gear. Check engine light went on. I Was able to drive the traverse to the local gmc/Buick dealer which mentioned they were able to download some codes about possible transmission failure - super dangerous and very concerning for a ~1.5 year old vehicle with under 13,000 miles. This could be a major safety issue. Vehicle left at dealer, at this time no confirmed diagnosis but dealer acknowledged there’s a problem.

Upon inspection, the contact noticed there was a leak in the exhaust system. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, and the contact was informed that the exhaust pipe had a leak and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired.
