2018 CHEVROLET VOLT Complaints

Reduc d propulsion power warning while driving in EV mode. ICE started and was able to make it 1/2 mile home. Failure diagnosed to a faulty BECM. Has been at the dealer for 1 month today with no word on when the part or repair will be done.

Shift to park not working. Dashboard says action needed and vehicle will not shut off.

The gear shifter for the Chevy Volt has an issue where it does not register in Park. I need to contantlty move through the gears to have it be in park.

......car totally stopped on road in traffic and would not restart. I felt the car losign propulsion so I got off the Intestate and on to a local street. Message in dash was that engine was unavailable. I got out of the car and several cars almost hit my car. Car was flat bedded to Chevy dealer and diagonosed. EGR valve needs to be replaced and is covered under warrenty. HOWEVER, have been waiting 4days and t old that valve not available. This is on a vacation trip and 300 miles away from home.. I can ask for the EGR valve from the car. I am on the GM-Volt listserve and other Generation 2 Volt owners have identified this problem previously. You should initiate a recall since the engine just cuts off and the battery propulsion is unavailable.

I put it in park, and try to turn off the car, but it says "Shift to Park", and won't let me turn off the car.

When the vehicle is placed in park and I attempt to turn it off, the dash will indicate the vehicle is not in park and subsequently, the vehicle cannot be turned off. Sometimes, if you wiggle the shifter or move it through all the settings (RNDL) and back to park, it will resolve the issue. Sometimes, it can take a few minutes to resolve the issue.

Car shifter saying not in park when it is causing issues with turning off car. Has been happening for a while

BECM failed upon startup. Pressed start and vehicle appeared to turn on. Shifted into reverse but there was no motor power and I began to roll backwards down the driveway. Started the vehicle again and then the engine came on and a reduced propulsion message appeared.

Over the past several weeks, I have had the car issue an error stating "Shift to Park". I have previously had the car in for service for this error, and in the past have succeeded in getting it to stop by squeezing the trigger on the shifter repeatedly, but the error has returned and is getting more persistent. It now happens every few times I park the car. I cannot turn off the car without getting the error message to clear, and sometimes it has taken considerable time and effort to get the message to clear. I have not taken the car back to the dealer again as I read that it was important to first submit a report here.

Car wouldn’t turn off kept saying SHIFT TO PARK. When car was already in park On Chevy Volt forms this problem is common, sometimes it comes on when driving and freezing the steering wheel. Chevy knows how wide spread this problem is as attested by the many class action law suits, but the refuse to fix it or issue a recall for cars outside of warranty
