This car has the shift to park issue that was under a recall for 2016 to 2019 chevy Malibu. However gm refuses to put my VIN in the system so this issue can be repaired. This is a 2018 Malibu which should have been on that recall list.

The shift to park is a problem it killed my battery because the car stays on and when I was driving the car turned off in the middle of turning causing someone to almost hit me this is the 3rd time that happened to me but the shift to park has been a problem since I got this car and chevy does nothing about it.

I have a 2018 Chevrolet Malibu . Lately after I park my car it’s comes up on my screen to shift to park. But the problem is that my vehicle is already in park mode. What I’m trying to find out if there have been any other complaints or concern regarding this issue. I’m 83 years old and I drive my vehicle minimally. It’s only has 9100 in mileage and I’ve taken it to my dealership in parkville, MD 21234(jerry’s Chevrolet)since my purchase date in March of 2018. I’ve done every service requested by schedule. I need to know if I take this in is this covered issue under my power train warranty since this controls my car movement. It’s very disturbing to me that it would not be, again I’m a senior citizen on a fixed income and every penny count these days. I look forward to hearing from someone please. My vehicles as in park.
