2019 CHEVROLET BLAZER Complaints

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. I am concerned that I will be stucked somewhere unable to shut off my vehicle or worst-case it doesn't actually stay in park.

This is a safety issue in that the shifter wire harness malfunctions and will not let the electrical system to confirm that the car is in park and won’t let it cut off. I have had this repaired once, and it is now beginning to show the same thing. 1) you can’t cut the car off. 2). Letting it run until the automatic cut-off kicks in can run the battery down. 3)you can shut it off in neutral, but the key alarm sounds the entire time and if the parking brake does not hold, it can roll. Leaving a car unlocked can lead to theft, but it also can lead to someone getting into your car for other reasons.

2019 Chevy Blazer RS - 39,217 miles and shifter assembly is malfunctioning and will not allow car to turn off properly and leaving lights, beeping and miscellaneous dash indicators on. This is a known issue with Chevy.

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. Based on online forums and complaints of multiple other Blazer owners, it seems obvious that Blazers should have been included in the recall.

8 out of 10 times I put the vehicle in park I receive a "shift to park" alert. I have to put it in another gear several times before it recognizes it is parked. Sometimes flicking the shifter push-in piece on the bottom will work. I am unsure if the car is officially parked when I don't get this message.

When in park my car says “shift to park” when it has clearly been shifted into park. I’ve read forums and it’s the same issue for many Chevrolet cars

There is a current recall in place #19-NA-206 that I believe should include my vehicles vin number. There is an intermittent shift to park message that appears when the vehicle had been shifted into park and the ignition has been turned to off position. Making it unsafe as I am not sure if the vehicle is actually in park or not.

Received repeated message on display " steering assist reduced, drive with care" Engine races at times and Auto Stop quicks working. Could lead to a crash if steering is restricted due to P0128 code was repeatedly triggered as a fault code. Turned out to be thermostat which is being replaced on thousands of these vehicles. You can search for the message. GM is replacing under powertrain warranty however many vehicles are beyond warranty. This is approximately a $1000 repair.

I cannot shut off my vehicle. When I turn off engine warning message and alert binging tells me to shift to park. The vehicle is in park but vehicle does not register that it’s in park. I’m stuck in vehicle which will not stop alerts and runs down battery. This is a hazardous situation. I can’t tell if car is actually engaged in park or not. This started happening intermittently over the last month but now it happens 8 times out of 10 when I try to shut off the vehicle.
