Since I purchased the car, it has had regular maintenance done on time. I was driving on the interstate on my way home from work. As I got off the exit I noticed my car acting funny, as I got to the end of the exit I noticed that I had no breaks and that I could not turn the steering at all and actually could not come to a stop at the end of the exit, having to run the stop sign and into on coming traffic which if a police officer would not have been there could have been a very bad situation. Had my car towed to the dealership to find out that it jumped time. With only 70+ thousand miles on my car, why would I even think to worry about my car jumping time. I then find out my warranty ended at 60,000 miles. I have read that there are number of cases with this issue. Now I am out $ $3000 for a motor and labor to have the motor installed.

I have had my vehicle for 2 years since day 1 I have had issues with the vehicle from control arms, electrical in doors and car systems, throttle body, stability traction control. I think the car has been in the shop well over 12 times with at least 5 times being the throttle body where the car just looses power and your unable to drive more than 40 mph. It generally would happen on the freeway. I would pull over and have to turn my car off and sit and then turn it back on. The above issues with this car is just to name a few. By the way I purchased the vehicle at 27,000 miles so there is no reason why these issues should continuously be happening. I have called Chevy numerous of times complaing that this vehicle is something wrong with it. I believe they have just about replaced every part except for the brakes, engine and transmission and I a sure those are going to be next. I could go on and on about this vehicle however, it is definitely something wrong. I just took it in for check engine light again and noise from rear end sounding like a strut. And they found issue with key thob causing check engine light, leaking strut, and bad wheel bearings. Now that just adds more to the list. Not to mention I get home and the check engine light is back on again and the noise is slightly still there. I have plenty of records I just have to much to upload here, but if someone could please look into my situation. This has truly been a nightmare. We cannot even drive the car on the freeway to far because we are scared we may get stuck.

I park, place the shifter into park and turn the car off but a message appears on the gauge cluster screen saying shift into park. The engine is off but the lights and radio stay on. The shifter is locked and will not move. The same screen shows that the car is in park before I shut the car off, I can feel the transmission shifting too. I have to turn the car back on and run through the gears and back off several times to make it shut off. Seems to happen more often on shorter trips. I went to the dealer they have a part on order seems to be a known issue but I'm just out of warranty. I have had the car for 2.5 years just over 35K miles and it just started.

When placing the car in park to shut off the vehicle, a message appears stating "action required" "shift to park." The car is in park. Shifting in and out of park does not solve the issue. This intermittent problem occurred over about 3 months. Have to turn off lights manually or they won't go off. Dash light remain on longer than usual. Car battery finally died. Replaced the battery/ problem persists. When getting out of car and closing doors, horn honks 3 times. Remote not detected when getting in car again to go somewhere. Problem started shortly after warranty expired. Took to dealer, courtesy Chevrolet. Was told while the problem was not "common" it was a "known" issue. Never suggested this was something to look at any other time the car was in for service. Had to replace the shift gear. Cost $450 initially, but after complaining, they took off about $100. Was told that this is not covered by power train warranty even though NHTSA defines power train as including "shift lever/gear control and indicator devices." There is a tsb out on this problem and many NHTSA complaints as well as Chevrolet message boards. Car has only 16,000 miles on it.

My issue started a few days ago and has progressively gotten worse. I place the car in park, shut off the vehicle and a message appears to "shift to park" car is turned off and already in park and you cannot just get out of the vehicle for it to go away it just remains on the screen and the car remains on in an auxiliary type mode which I'm pretty sure if left alone would eventually drain the battery. It had gotten worse since I was having to turn the car off and on multiple times before it would register it was actually in park. The dealership currently has my car and has told me the shifter assembly needs replaced. I had sent them a screen shot of the service report from GM which you can find here https://static.NHTSA.gov/ODI/tsbs/2018/mc-10154985-999.pdf which states the problem multiple people are having. My car has 21K miles on it and I've only had it for two years. I'm going to be very upset if I end up having to pay this out of pocket even though the car is still technically under warranty from the date I purchased in 2017.

Car is stalling whenever I come to a complete stop. I have to try to avoid making a left turn because it takes so long for the car to react when I get on the accelerator to go. Some days it will hesitate a little and go, but lately it has been stalling all the way out and it takes a few mins for it to react when I'm trying to pull off!!
