The gear shift cracked right below the button and cut my finger. If it breaks all the way the car will become inoperable. I wrote to Chevy as I believe this is a safety issue and the fact that the car is only three years old. I have NEVER had a car gear shift break in my 33 years of driving. The Chevy senior advisor rudely informed my the "Chevy cannot be responsible for things that break on their vehicles and your out of warranty"
