1 Automatic Transmission Control Module problem

Failure Date: 10/10/2022

Oct, 2022 my car did not shift out of park so I googled my car and the problem, so it said it was my monostable shifter modular. I towed it to a transmission mechanic and they did a full body diagnostic test and I was told all I needed was to buy a new transmission shifter modular and a pcm to get my car running again. I did not have the $ 4,200 for them to fix my car so I had it towed back home. Now as of today my car is not running still because of the transmission shifter modular and pcm I bought brand new installed myself and for some odd reason the electrical started flickering as if maybe the wiring is wrong or something. Now there was already a recall on the following repairs I've done and yet its documented in the recall system that all recalls were repaired by manufacture in 2017 alternator diode thermal fatigue, April 2016 transmission electronic shift lever, Jan 2016 wheel chocks, July 2015 reprogram occupant restraint control module, Dec 2019 reprogram powertrain control module, oct 2012 emissions recall m30 position valve/internal temp diagnostics. So either the recalls weren't repaired as documented or it is a factory defect and my car needs the repairs done again at no charge. When I call to the dealers the management was a female and told me me my car was to old and they longer work on my car I've been told that several times. I also have all receipts for repairs and you will see that its the same issue as the recall that was apparently repaired.
