2019 CHEVROLET BLAZER Complaints

I placed the shifter into the park position & a warning came on the dash stating the car is not in park as I turned off the ignition. The warning on the dash as well as an audible warning. I had to use the key fob to lock the doors. I took the car to the dealership for repairs.

When parking gear is in park but when turning car off car is saying gear is not in park.Turning car back on gear says in park but when turning back off still says shift to park and then you have to willing gear to see what’s going on. If gear is saying in park but actually not in park it can damage to car & people unknowingly

The starter and flex plate failed (cracked) on the vehicle while on the road due to the auto start stop feature. When I stopped for a red light, the car made a loud grinding noise and would not restart leaving me stranded in traffic. The 2019 Blazer has the auto start stop feature which cannot be disabled and likely results in excess wear and tear. GM updated the 2020 model to allow the function to be disabled. GM has a number of technical bulletins highlighting both starter and flex plate issues, the first being in 2020. Both the starter and flex plate failures were verified by Reeder Chevrolet in Knoxville TN. I've asked for the flex plate to be provided when repair is complete. There were no warnings via check engine lights or any strange noises prior to the failure.

There were 2 incidents. 1) got a steering control error, plus my AC stopped working and the temperature gauge would exceed zero. I was able to drive. I had the error code reset and the problem went away 2) car stalled on a busy street and I got a service all wheel drive warning. I was able to restart the car and the error went away.

The temperature gage on the dashboard was reading zero and the steering assist reduced message came on. The temperature gage and thermostat were replaced under warranty

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The radiator How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The vehicle can overheat, causing vehicle break down on the road Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Vehicle was inspected by Chevrolet Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No warning lights, coolant was pooling on driveway The vehicle was inspected and repaired by Chevrolet, radiator and coolant were replaced.

While using my vehicle, twice in one day, my vehicle failed to recognize that it was in park. My 2019 Chevrolet Blazer essentially malfunctioned, and was unable to recognize that it was in park, which left me unable to leave the car to go into my office building. The car was in fact in park, but did not recognize this fact. I tried exiting the vehicle and closing the door, but the car still would not turn off. I was left to essentially babysit my car, while attempting to work the gear shifter back and forth between drive, reverse, and park, until it eventually finally accepted that it was set to park, and allowed me to fully power the car down. If I am unable to have the car recognize that it is in park, I am unable to leave it, as it can be started and driven without the FOB due to the potential safety hazard of the vehicle thinking it is not properly shifted into park. The battery will also be drained, effectively leaving me with an inoperable vehicle. In the image I attached, please view the bottom right corner of the dashboard which indicates "P" for park, while the vehicle still states that I am not shifted into park. I have a video of this incident, and it appears many consumers with select models of Chevrolet and GMC cars also have this issue. I find it appalling that many have already discovered this issue, yet no recall has been placed to fix this widely known issue (even by GM according to their bulleting regarding this).

I have a 2019 Chevy Blazer RS with 12,350 miles on it. As you can tell I use it locally. A month ago I pulled into my garage, put the car into park, shut the car off & a warning came across the dash saying "Shift to Park". I started the car back up, put the car in neutral then park & shut it off. The message was gone so I blamed it on something I must have done. Two weeks later the same thing happened. I did the same routine and it fixed itself. This time I started taking notice. Last week it did it again. Today was the worse. I was at the grocery store and it took 3-5 minutes to fix it. I already have an appointment at the dealership on 3/20/24 for an oil change, tire rotation & 12-point check up. I'll be bringing this malfunction to their attention. I'll also be bringing a credit card with me because I have a feeling after doing some investigation that I might be getting [XXX] in the pocket book. I see some places say it takes an hour and costs a couple hundred & others are charging $500 & keeping the car over night. I also see GM has known about this since 2016 with the Malibu and Volt. How sad a recall hasn't been ordered for this issue. I've read it could be a $9 wire harness that can be bought at GM Parts Direct. So GM doing nothing over a possible $9 part? That's a sin! The constant chiming wears the battery down not to mention being the only person in the car who knows nothing about mechanics is a scary position to be put in. I saw 3 class action law suits have been filed so isn't it time for the Federal Government to step in and do something about this? It's absolutely absurd to allow this to continue now going on 9 years. I can't buy a winning lottery ticket, but boy if there's a faulty product out there I'll buy that. What are the chances of me, after fighting to finally getting an SUV for decades, I finally get the only Chevy in 2019 to end up with a problem GM won't acknowledge.

I'm getting a Shift to Park message on my dashboard when the car is in park position telling me to take action with a loud dinging sound. I need to know if this is a GM issue? Thanks

When shifting into Park, system fails to detect that car is in park and gives the Alert/Error message informing driver to “Shift to Park”. This error prevents the car from turning off or locking. Further, driver is unable to differentiate between if the car is actual in park or not, which is a major safety issue. A car not recognizing being in Park, can pose a huge risk to the driver and any around the car when it is in this state.
