I GET AN ERROR MESSAGE 'SHIFT TO PARK' WHEN IN PARK I AM TRYING TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE. THEN IT DINGS, WON'T LOCK, ETC.

FIRST TIME BACK IN JUNE 10TH, 2020, I TOOK IT IN BECAUSE OF "REMOTE NOT DETECTED" THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, FEW HOURS LATER, SAME DAY AFTER I PICKED THE CAR UP IT WENT HAYWIRE WHILE PARKED. IT THREW ITSELF INTO THEFT MODE, WOULD NOT LET US MANUALLY LOCK THE CAR, ELECTRICAL WAS STILL ON BUT ENGINE WAS SHUT OFF, ALARM, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, AND LIGHTS WAS GOING OFF WHILE I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS TIME THEY'VE TOLD ME, THE A/C CONDENSATION FRIED THE CPU MODULE BECAUSE THE ONLY THING KEEPING WATER OUT OF THE CPU WAS A TRAY. SEPTEMBER 9TH, 2020 I TAKE IT BACK INTO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE AGAIN THE CAR KEPT READING "NO REMOTE DETECTED". THEY CLAIMED IT WAS MY "DASH CAM" THAT CAUSED THE ISSUE. OCTOBER 14TH, 2020 THE CAR AGAIN WENT HAYWIRE WHILE IN MOTION. THIS TIME IT THREW ITSELF INTO THEFT MODE, ALARM WENT OFF, WIPERS, WAS READING LOW FUEL (FULL TANK) STEERING ASSIST TURNED ON AND OFF, BRAKES STARTED LOCKING MID BUSY STREET, STEERING WHEEL TIGHTENED ALSO. I BARELY COULD TURN IT INTO A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET TO GET OFF THE ROAD. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN, THROUGH MY TRIPLE A PLAN FOR THE SECOND TIME BECAUSE I WAS "OUT OF THE AREA" THAT THEY COULD SEND A TOW TRUCK TO. THEY TELL ME AGAIN CONDENSATION GOT INTO THE CPU AND WASN'T EVEN SURE IF IT'LL HAPPEN AGAIN IF I CONTINUE TO RUN THE A/C. I PICKED THE CAR UP THE NEXT WEEK AND ON OCTOBER 25TH, 2020 THE CAR AGAIN WOULD NOT READ THE KEYS. EVERY INCIDENT BUT OCTOBER 25TH, 2020 INCIDENT, I HAVE LET A SUPERVISOR FROM GM KNOW OF THE SITUATION, HIS NAME IS [XXX] EXT. I HAVE RECORDED EVEN PHONE RECORDS OF EVERY INCIDENT THAT'S OCCURRED. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

AFTER JUMP STARTING CAR BECAUSE OF DEAD BATTERY DECIDED TO DRIVE TO DEALER 1-2 MILES AWA.Y. MY WIFE FOLLOWED ME IN CAR. WHILE DRIVING DURING THE 1-2 MILE TRIP THE STEARING WOULD LOCK UP (QUIT WORKING) AND THE BREAKS AS WELL.THIS LASTED SEVERAL SECONDS AND RESULTED IN TOTAL LACK OF CONTROL AT 35-45 MPH ON A CITY STREET. THE ALTERNATOR WAS WORKING PROVIDING ELECTRICITY TO THE CARS SYSTEMS. AS BATTERIES FREQUENTLY FAIL I BELIEVE THIS IS A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER TO THE OCCUPANT AND OTHER VEHICALS ON THE ROAD.THIS OCCURRED ON SUNDAY OCTOBER 17, 2020

GETTING A "SHIFT TO PARK" MESSAGE WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK. IT WON'T LET YOU DO ANYTHING LOCK THE CAR, BELLS GOING OFF, NOTHING AND SOMETIMES IT TAKES 20 MINUTES OR LONGER TO KEEP TRYING TO GET THE CAR INTO PARK.IT WOULD DO IT EVERYTIME I GO TO DRIVE IT.
