2017 CHEVROLET VOLT Complaints

WE OWN TWO 2017 CHEVY VOLTS. BOTH HAVE TWO ISSUES: 1) OFTEN CRUISE CONTROL DOES ALWAYS STAY ENGAGED DUE TO BRAKE PEDAL SLIPPING TO A VERY SLIGHT DEPRESSED POSITION. 2) SHIFT-TO-PARK- CARS WILL NOT PROPERLY GO INTO PARK SOMETIMES AND THUS CANNOT BE TURNED OFF. THESE TWO ISSUES ARE CLEARLY MANUFACTURER DEFECTS AS BOTH CARS WERE BOUGHT NEW AND WITHIN A MONTH OF EACH OTHER. I WILL ENTER THIS FOR MY OTHER VIN NUMBER AS WELL. THESE HAVE BEEN ONGOING ISSUES THAT WE ARE HAVING TO SPEND MONEY TO CORRECT AND THERE ARE MANY REPORTS OF THESE BEING ISSUES, YET THERE IS NO RECALL. WE PURCHASED BOTH CARS BRAND NEW WITHIN A MONTH OF EACH OTHER. BOTH ISSUES HAVE BEEN ONGOING AND HAVE OCCURED MORE THAN ONCE.

41000 MILES AIRBAG SERVICE LIGHT ON AT ALL TIMES WHEN CAR IS POWERED ON. PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT ON OR OFF STATUS IS TOTALLY DARK, NO INDICATION OF STATUS. DOES NOT MATTER IF A PASSENGER IS IN THE SEAT OF NOT OR IF THE CAR IS MOVING OR NOT.

AFTER COMPLETING DRIVING AND THEN SHIFTING TO PARK, THE VEHICLE WON'T SHUT DOWN AFTER PUSHING START/STOP BUTTON AND GIVES AN ERROR MESSAGE TO 'SHIFT TO PARK' EVEN THOUGH IT'S ALREADY BEEN SHIFTED TO PARK.

PROPULSION POWER IS REDUCED WHILE DRIVING. POWER IS LOST AND BATTERY CELLS ARE DRAINED CHEVY DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THEY CAN NOT FIND ERROR OR ADDRESS PROBLEM. AFTER PHOTO SHOWING ERROR ON DASHBOARD.

SHIFT TO PARK ISSUE. EVEN WHEN THE GEAR LEVER IS IN PARK POSITION AND TRYING TO SWITCH OFF THE POWER THE CAR STILL REQUEST TO MOVE TO PARK AND DOESN'T SWITCH OFF

FOR THE SECOND TIME IN THREE YEARS THIS CAR FAILS TO TURN OFF WHEN IN PARK. INSTEAD A MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED SAYING "SHIFT INTO PARK" EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS ALREADY IN PARK. LAST TIME IT REQUIRED THE REPLACEMENT OF A SWITCH IN THE SHIFTER. THE CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN. HAPPENS ALMOST EVERY TIME THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND SOMETIMES HAPPENS OVER AND OVER BEFORE I CAN GET THE CAR TO ACTUALLY TURN OFF.

WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, IT SAYS "ACTION REQUIRED, SHIFT TO PARK" IT DOESN'T RECOGNIZE THAT IT'S ALREADY IN PARK... IT'S A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE SHIFTER AND THEY HAVEN'T ISSUES A RECALL YET. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY.

VEHICLE HAS A "SHIFT TO PARK" ERROR MESSAGE WHENEVER THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK. THIS WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE. I NOTICED THIS IS A PROBLEM ACROSS THE BOARD WITH GENERATION 2 MODELS AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE A RECALL AROUND THIS SINCE IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WHEN PARKED CANNOT BE TURNED OFF IF THE COMPUTER BELIEVES ITS NOT IN PARK. I HAD TO START/STOP AND SHIFT THE CAR IN VARIOUS GEARS FOR A FEW MINUTES TO FINALLY HAVE IT RECOGNIZE IT IS IN PARK. MANY YOUTUBE AND REDDIT THREADS SHOW THE ISSUE. APPARENTLY GM IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM TOO.

INTERMITTENT "SHIFT TO PARK" DURING PARKING PROCESS. THIS PREVENTS VEHICLE FROM BEING TURNED OFF. HAD THE CAR INTO THE DEALER ABOUT A YEAR AGO TO FIX AND THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE WORSE WHEN IT IS COLD AND IT HAPPENS MORE OFTEN. MULTIPLE ACTUATION OF THE SHIFT RELEASE BUTTON EVENTUALLY CAUSES THE SYSTEM TO SINCE THE SHIFT LEVER IS IN THE PARK POSITION. THE DATE BELOW INDICATES THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED, BUT SINCE OWNING THE CAR, IT'S HAPPENED AT LEAST 5 TIMES A MONTH WITH THIS LAST WEEK BEING AT LEAST ONCE DAILY.

MY 2017 CHEVROLET VOLT HAD THE SHIFT-TO-PARK ISSUE. MY DEALER, COUGHLIN CHEVROLET, NEWARK, OHIO, TELLS ME THERE IS NO RECALL. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT SOME VOLT VINS SHOW A RECALL BUT MINE DOES NOT - YET I HAVE THE PROBLEM.....!
