2018 CHEVROLET VOLT- Casa Grande, AZ
When I stop and shift vehicle into park and try to turn off vehicle. The vehicle does not recognize the vehicle is in park and will stay running. This had happened numerous times and is ongoing. Have read there is even a class action suit because of this problem with numerous different gm vehicles. Why has a recall not been issued?

Shift to park defect. When I try to turn my car off it won’t completely shut off, a notification on my dash says “Shift to park” but my gear shift is in park already. It takes 5-10 times of me cutting car off and on for it to finally completely shut off.

“Shift to park” message appears when car is in park making it impossible to turn vehicle off. This is a documented issue going back to 2016 across other Chevy vehicles

When turning vehicle off, it will display a message "SHIFT TO PARK" even though shifter is in the park position, the vehicle will also remain on. Sometimes have to jiggle the gear shift or shift back into park a few times before the message goes away and am able to turn vehicle off. This is very dangerous as if it's left unnoticed in a garage the car can be left running potentially filling the house with fumes. Can also run out the battery and gas and leave you stranded if away from your home.

2018 CHEVROLET VOLT- San Mateo , CA
After I put the car in park, the car dashboard doesnt reflect this change, essentially assumes the car is not in park and I am unable to lock the car and the lights will stay on for a while. After jiggling the shift handle just the right way I could get it to recognize the car was indeed in park.

I keep getting a shift to park message when I place the vehicle in park. I have to continuously take the vehicle out of park and put it back in a few times until it finally works otherwise I cannot turn off the vehicle. This is a huge issue that needs to be recalled immediately.

2018 CHEVROLET VOLT- Bellevue, WA
When trying to turn car off, "shift to park" error message appears on console, but car is in park as observed by gear shift and console display. Order of events: car stopped in parking spot or garage; shifted to park; parking brake set; hit power button to shut down; "shift to park" error message appears; car will not shutdown. Need to hit power button again in order to shift out of park to any other position (N, R, D, etc.), then shift back to Park and hit power button again. Sometimes 1 try works, but often the error message will appear again and multiple power button - shift to gear - shift back to park and power button again - sequences must be tried in order to turn the car off. Please issue recall.

2018 CHEVROLET VOLT- Saratoga Springs, UT
When car is in park the vehicle sometimes does not recognize that and will not let you turn the car off. The display tells you that you need to shift to park but it is already in park. The problem is happening frequently now.

2018 CHEVROLET VOLT- Tallahassee, FL
General: When I would shift to Park, the display would indicate I was in park, but the car would not turn off. I sometimes had to spend 10 minutes trying. The safety issue was if the car is left on it because the engine system would not recognize park, it could run from gas and create deadly fumes. 1. Shift stick and harness. I do not have the part. 2. Confirmed by dealer and part replaced. $491.33 3. Unsure if it was inspected. Google search has multiple listings for this issue 4. No warnings, no lamps prior to. Warning message when shifted to park and trying to turn off.
