Hey all. I have a ‘21 RS, and the shift to park message comes up and beeps every time I shut the car off. My dealer has a part supposedly ordered, but who knows when it will come in. Is there a way to disable this until I can get my car fixed? I’m spending 4-5 minutes each time I shut the car off trying to get it to stop. I rattle the shifter, push the side button on the shifter, turn the car on shift then shift to park..sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. I’m taking it on a road trip next week don’t want this bothering me, but I guess at this point it will.

Wife's car has the problem, 2022 and 12,000 miles. I say, stop buying American crap. (Well actually, I told her to call the dealership on Monday, pointing out how easy it is for a switch to detect that you are in park/neutral... as it has been that way since the 50's.)

My dealership asked me if I would be interested in them buying it from me. I will look into that. It's a 3 year lease with 1 year to go. 45k miles though.

What, complain to bbb? Gets you nowhere. Around 2017, gm settled class action lawsuit for this very same issue. They do not care. And wait, if you have one, the cvt trans will go out just past your warranty. Set aside 6k to fix it.

I was hoping if enough of people complain about this shift to park maybe it will be a recall. Already replaced transmission at 31,000 warranty covered
GM did entend my warranty extra 100,000 for the inconvenience from replacing Transmission. Hoping to trade it in soon

Technically, the TB is not an American made car. Just sold by an American car company. And just so you know, most automobile manufacturers get 60-90% of their parts from China or Korea. So we are all supporting them. It's really sad that we rely on them for everything in our daily lives.

Just wondering why the transmission change at 31,000K? I think my transmission isnt acting right thats why Im asking. I have a 21 TB with 55K miles.

Take it to the dealership u still have ur powertrain warranty
Did anyone have any luck with this?
So, has anyone's problem been fixed? Our TB has been sitting at dealership for over a month now with same shift to park issue. They told me part is on BO. Wanted me to drive it till part comes in. Told them no way, want a loaner, so they gave me a loaner to use. I was hoping it would speed things up, but it hasn't.
Yes I am having been to dealership waiting on new shifter they said it's been 2 weeks on back order. They yes just have to deal with it
I think that's a bunch of crap that dealers are telling us "we have to deal with it". My wife and I spent 30 minutes one night trying to turn it off.

There are several other threads on this forum regarding the "shift to park" problem. My posts are there. Summary - after waiting for the part for 2 months (I kept
vehicle awaiting the part)...came in and the dealer claims it was defective and caused a module to fry - rendering the vehicle totally inoperable. Now been at the dealership for a month and no ETA on the new cable and module. Contacted GM customer support to start a "case" - awaiting a call back. As far as clearing the error message...when I had the vehicle and it was doing that ..just flicking the shifter button always cleared it. Never spent more than a few annoying seconds getting the message to clear the display error message. 2021 RS AWD ...with 16k miles. My dealership is apologetic
and is paying for a rental as all their loaner vehicles were out because of other cars awaiting part due to the GM UAW strike.

Mine just started. I have a '21 LS, just under 30k miles. Had to replace the battery last week and now the "Shift to park" message comes on just in the morning. Yesterday was annoying, today it won't stop and my lights are on even with engine off & doors locked. It won't stop!!! I even walked away for 5 minutes hoping it would just stop beeping, but no!

A month has passed and no ETA on replacement part. Vehicle inoperable and at dealership. Started a "case" with extremely worthless GM customer service.
Tried to find the component on line and through various part locator sources. Any dealership showing inventory is for their service dept and customer awaiting
up to 3 months for the part. If you bring vehicle to dealership...do not leave while awaiting part. Have them order part and advise when received. Open to suggestions!
