2017 Chevrolet Volt complaints

SHIFT TO PARK WARNING ON DASH

WHEN THE CAR IS BEING SHIFTED TO PARK, THE SYSTEM GIVES A WARNING TO 'SHIFT CAR TO PARK' IN ORDER TO TURN OFF VEHICLE. SHIFTER IS NOT RESPONDING TO CAR LEAVING THE VEHICLE UNABLE TO BE TURNED OFF.

CAN NOT TURN ENGINE OFF AFTER PARKING THE CAR. THE MESSAGE "ACTION REQUIRED" 'SHIFT TO PARK' SHOWS UP EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS IN P AND PARKING BREAK IS ALSO APPLIED AND THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. HAS BEEN HAPPENING EVERYDAY THE PAST WEEK. HAVE TO LEAVE THE CAR UNTIL IT TURNS ITSELF OFF!

SHIFT TO PARK ISSUE- WHEN CAR STOPPED AND GEAR SHIFTER PLACED IN "PARK", CAR DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THIS AND CANNOT CUT OFF IGNITION, SHOWING "SHIFT TO PARK" ON DASH. AFTER JIGGLING GEAR SHIFT A LOT AND PUTTING IT IN AND OUT OF PARK MULTIPLE TIMES IT FINALLY RESOLVES. AFTER SEARCHING ON WEB, THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE IN 2017 VOLTS.

ERRORS: "UNABLE TO CHARGE", U2619, U2620, U2621, U2622, U2623, U2624, UB2AAA, BECM NEEDS REPLACING; ALSO "SHIFT TO PARK" ERROR IS VERY COMMON IN THIS CHEVY VOLT.

MY WIFE AND I WERE TAKING A 200 MILE TRIP. I WAS USING THE "HOLD" MODE, DRIVING AT 65 MPH, AND ABOUT 60 MILES INTO THE TRIP A MESSAGE CAME UP THAT I WAS IN REDUCED POWER MODE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I PULLED OVER AND READ THE MANUAL AND THEN PROCEEDED ANOTHER 30 MILES USING THE ENGINE. I REDUCED MY SPEED TO 50 MPH. AFTER STOPPING FOR AN HOUR AT OUR DESTINATION, WE STARTED BACK HOME, BUT THE SAME ALERTS WERE ON THE SCREEN. I WENT TO A LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER, 5 MILES. BEFORE GETTING THERE THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. I HAD 40 MILES OF BATTERY LEFT SO I PROCEEDED THE LAST 2 MILES TO THE DEALER ON BATTERY POWER. THEY COULD NOT SERVICE THE VEHICLE SO I HAD IT TOWED BY AAA 90 MILES TO TULSA. THE DAY BEFORE I LEFT I HAD RECEIVED THE MONTHLY DIAGNOSTIC REPORT WHICH STATED ALL SYSTEMS WERE FINE. THE CAR HAS 27,000 MILES ON IT. THE DEALER SAYS IT IS THE EGR VALVE, WHICH ARE BACK ORDERED. I DON'T KNOW WHEN IT WILL BE REPAIRED.

KNOW AS 'SHIFT TO PARK' ISSUE. CAR WILL NOT SHUT DOWN AFTER PUT INTO PARK.

THE VEHICLE WILL NOT TURN OFF AFTER BEING PUT IN PARK. SHIFTING TO PARK SHOULD ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO BE TURNED OFF WITH THE START/STOP BUTTON. IT WILL NOT TURN OFF IN THE PARK POSITION.

CAR WILL INTERMITTENTLY NOT TURN OFF WHEN SHIFTER PLACED IN PARK AND ON / OFF BUTTON PUSHED. MESSAGE ON DISPLAY SCREEN WILL SHOW "SHIFT TO PARK". IT APPEARS THE VEHICLE IS NOT RECOGNIZING THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE 12/10/2020 AND IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES THRU TODAY'S DATE 12/23/2020. IT HAPPENS IN THE PARK GEAR WHEN ATTEMPTING TO SHUT DOWN THE VEHICLE.

I GET AN ERROR MESSAGE " SHIFT TO PARK" WHEN THE VEHICLE GEAR SHIFT IS IN PARK.

PRIOR TO STARTING MY 1,100 MI TRIP WITH MY 2017 VOLT PREMIER, I INFLATED THE TIRES, CHECKED FLUIDS, & CHARGED THE CAR. THE MONTHLY DIAGNOSTIC REPORT I RECEIVED THE DAY BEFORE MY DEPARTURE INDICATED NO PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR, WHICH HAD APPROX 40,500 MI. I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATES & HIGHWAYS USING HOLD (GAS) MODE, OCCASIONALLY MOUNTAIN MODE. APPROXIMATELY 275 MI. INTO THE TRIP I RECEIVED POWER PROPULSION REDUCED ALERT. AFTER AN ADDITIONAL 50-75 MI I RECEIVED AN ACTION REQUIRED: ENGINE OVERHEATING REDUCE SPEED ALERT. I EXITED THE INTERSTATE AND PROCEEDED TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP TO DETERMINE IF IT WAS SAFE TO CONTINUE ON MY TRIP. I WAS TOLD THAT THE PROPULSION ALERT WAS NOT AN IMMEDIATE CONCERN & THAT THE OVERHEATING WAS LIKELY NOT RELATED. I ALSO RECEIVED A GM DIAGNOSTIC E-MAIL STATING THERE WAS AN EMISSIONS PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE SERVICED WITHIN 7 DAYS, BUT DID NOT BECOME AWARE OF THIS E-MAIL UNTIL A DAY LATER. APPROX 200 MI LATER, I WAS ON A REMOTE, UNLIGHTED HIGHWAY WHEN I RECEIVED AN ENGINE UNAVAILABLE ALERT AND LOST POWER. MY CAR QUICKLY DECELERATED, BUT I WAS ABLE TO GET TO A NARROW SHOULDER. I TIRED TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, APPLY EMERGENCY BRAKES, AND SHUT THE CAR DOWN BUT IT WAS DIFFICULT TO TELL IF THESE FEATURES WERE WORKING. I PUT THE HAZARD LIGHTS ON AND WAITED FOR A CHP OFFICER DUE TO LACK OF CELL SERVICE & HIGHWAY SAFETY CONCERNS AT NIGHT. AFTER 3 HOURS, ALL SYSTEMS FAILED, INCLUDING LIGHTS. ONLY MANUAL LOCKS WORKED. AFTER TWO 30 MI TOWS TO GET TO A DEALERSHIP WI

WITH INCREASING FREQUENCY, WHEN I SHIFT TO PARK AND TURN THE CAR OFF IT DOES NOT ALWAYS RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS IN PARK AND DIRECTS "SHIFT TO PARK," DESPITE THE SHIFTER BEING IN PARK, AND WILL NOT COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. THIS COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE, BECAUSE IT IS UNCLEAR WHETHER THE CAR IS IN PARK OR NOT. ALSO BEING UNABLE TO LOCK THE CAR MEANS THE CAR IS AT RISK FOR VANDALISM AND/OR A CHILD GETTING INTO THE CAR AND TURNING IT ON.

CHEVROLET "SHIFT TO PARK" DEFECT. CAN'T POWER OFF CAR OR LOCK DOORS BECAUSE VEHICLE INDICATES IT IS NOT IN PARK, DESPITE CORRECT SHIFT POSITION. $400 TO REPLACE PART ON CAR WITH 45K MILES. PART NOT COVERED UNDER DRIVETRAIN WARRANTY. PROBLEM HAPPENING ACROSS CHEVY MODELS VOLT, MALIBU, TRAVERSE, ACADIA ETC... NEWSPAPER ARTICLES AND USERS COMPLAINING ON CHEVY FORUMS. NO REASON FOR SOMETHING WITH SO LITTLE USE TO BE FAILING SO EARLY ON VEHICLES. CHEVY OWES CONSUMERS A RECALL.

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.

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.

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.

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.....!

WHEN I PARK MY CAR, I SHIFT IT INTO PARK AND PRESS THE BUTTON TO TURN THE CAR OFF. HOWEVER I THEN GET A MESSAGE ON THE DASH: ACTION REQUIRED SHIFT TO PARK. BUT IT'S ALREADY IN PARK & I CANNOT SHUT OFF THE CAR.

UPON STARTING THE CAR (AFTER SITTING IN THE SUN WITH WINDOWS UP, SO HOT CABIN), WHEN I SHIFT TO ANY GEAR OUT OF PARK, I GET AN ACTION REQUIRED SHIFT TO PARK MESSAGE. THE SHIFTER WILL GO TO DRIVE, FOR EXAMPLE, BUT PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL DOES NOT MOVE THE CAR, AND I HAVE THE MESSAGE TO SHIFT TO PARK. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE. BOTH TIMES I ROLLED DOWN WINDOWS, AND TRIED TURNING THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN TO RESOLVE THIS. AFTER SEVERAL ROUNDS OF THIS, THE CAR DID SHIFT TO DRIVE AND WOULD GO. HOWEVER THE ENGINE IS RUNNING (RATHER THAN ONLY ELECTRIC, AS I USUALLY OPERATE); THE BATTERY GAGE IN CLASSICAL MODE SHOWS A RAPIDLY DECREASING CHARGE, THEN INCREASING, THEN DECREASING - ALSO THE PLACE WHERE IT SHOWS HOW MANY MILES LEFT IN BATTERY IS GREYED OUT AT 0, EVEN THOUGH THE BATTERY MAY APPEAR TO BE CHARGED MORE THAN HALF. ALSO, WHEN TRYING TO SHIFT MODES, HOLD MODE IS GRAYED OUT AND I CANNOT ACTIVATE IT. ONCE I ARRIVE AT MY DESTINATION AND TURN THE CAR OFF, PLUG IT IN, NEXT TIME IT TURNS ON AS NORMAL. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON FOR ALL THIS, AND DOES NOT TURN OFF WHEN RESTARTING A FULLY CHARGED BATTERY THE NEXT DAY.

SHIFT TO PARK ISSUE IS PRESENT AND GETTING WORSE. UNABLE TO TURN OFF CAR WHEN IT OCCURS. AS THIS IS COMMON TO THIS MODEL IT SHOULD BE TREATED AS A DIRECT AND GM SHOULD REPAIR AS PART OF A RECALL.

PURCHASED A 2107 VOLT PREMIER WITH 40K MILES IN JULY 2020. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND IT LOST POWER ON THE FREEWAY WITH A "SHIFT TO PARK" WARNING AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. SHE WAS ABLE TO GLIDE OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND I CAME TO RESCUE HER. AFTER REPEATED ON OFF CYCLES I GOT THE CAR TO MOVE A COUPLE OF MILES WITH SEVERAL "JERKING" MOTIONS WHILE DRIVING THEN IT DIED AGAIN AND I LOST POWER BRAKING (WENT TO MANUAL ONLY). THIS TIME I WAS UNABLE TO "RE-BOOT IT" AND HAD ONSTAR HAVE IT TOWED TO A LOCAL CHEVY DEALER WHO HAS A "CERTIFIED EV SPECIALIST"

MY 2017 CHEVY VOLT ALMOST ALWAYS SAYS "ACTION REQUIRED: SHIFT TO PARK" WHEN TRY TO SHUT IT OFF. IT'S ALREADY IN PARK. I SEE ITS KIND OF A COMMON PROBLEM,

FREQUENTLY WHEN TRYING TO PARK AND TURN OFF THE CAR, I WILL RECEIVE A "SHIFT TO PARK" ALERT ON THE DASH. THE CAR IS ALREADY IN "PARK" AND I AM TRYING TO TURN OFF THE CAR. I'VE HAD DIFFICULTY MAKING ADJUSTMENTS (E.G. HITTING THE BRAKE, TRYING TO ADJUST THE SHIFTING MECHANISM) TO GET THE CAR TO RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS ALREADY IN PARK.

SHIFT TO PARK MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS IN PARK, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL AND INSTALLED AN UPDATED HARNESS TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. BASED ON GOOGLE SEARCHES, THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE CHEVY VOLT.

CAR IS GIVING A MESSAGE SAYING, "ACTION REQUIRED: SHIFT TO PARK, WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK AND TRYING TO TURN THE CAR OFF. SEARCHING FOR THIS ON THE INTERNET REVEALS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE CHEVROLET VOLT AND OTHER CHEVROLET MODELS.

AS I WAS DRIVING I RECEIVED A MESSAGE ON THE DRIVER INFO CENTER TO SHIFT IN PARK AND I LOST ACCELERATION WHILE DRIVING. PULLED OFF TO THE SHOULDER CONTACTED ONSTAR TO GET VEHICLE TOWED TO NEARBY DEALER. WAS PUSHED BY TWO POLICE OFFICERS TO GET OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ON THE TWO LANE HIGHWAY. ONCE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP THE TOW DRIVER SAID I HAVE DRIVE AND REVERSE CAPABILITY AGAIN WHICH I DIDN'T HAVE WHILE PUT ON TOWER. AS I WAS STOPPED ON SIDE OF ROAD MY DRIVER INFO CENTER STATED PROPULSION POWER IS REDUCED SO I COULDN'T DRIVE OR REVERSE. CHECK ENGINE WAS ON THAT NIGHT AND THAT MORNING. AT THE DEALERSHIP, NO CODES COULD BE READ BECAUSE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT AWAY.

MY 2017 CHEVY VOLT IS EXPERIENCING A "SHIFT TO PARK" MALFUNCTION. THE CAR CAN NOT BE SHIFTED OUT OF PARK. BEFORE REACHING THIS EVENT, WHEN TURNING THE CAR OFF THE MESSAGE "SHIFT TO PARK" APPEARED ON THE MESSAGE SCREEN. THIS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL CONSECUTIVE DAYS BEFORE THE CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK. THESE EVENTS OCCURRED WHEN THE CAR WAS PARKED AND STATIONARY.

EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS CURRENT 2018 CHEVROLET VOLT RECALL. BOTH OUTBOARD REAR SEATBELTS FAIL TO LOCK IN A WAY THAT A CARSEAT CAN BE INSTALLED. THIS PROBLEM WAS DISCOVERED WHILE TRYING TO INSTALL A CAR SEAT FOR THE FIRST TIME. THE MIDDLE REAR SEATBELT WORKS PERFECTLY. THE DATE LISTEN BELOW IS THE DATE THE ISSUE WAS DISCOVERED.

AT SPEED 82 IN BUSY TRAFFIC THE CAR SHOW UP A MESSAGE PROPULSION POWER IS REDUCED AND STARTED TO JUMPING AND IT LOSE POWER AT THE SAME TIME ENGINE WAS RAVING AND THE BATTERY START TO DRAIN FAST

SHIFT TO PARK ISSUE. WHEN SHIFTING TO PARK AND TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE, THE MESSAGE "ACTION REQUIRED SHIFT TO PARK" APPEARS EVEN THOUGH VEHICLE SHIFTER IS IN PARK POSITION AND CAR APPEARS TO BE IN PARK. BECAUSE OF MESSAGE, THE CAR CANNOT BE LOCKED AND ELECTRONICS REMAIN ON. THIS MESSAGE IS INTERMITTENT AND CAN BE TYPICALLY CLEARED BY WIGGLING THE SHIFTER WHILE PRESSING BRAKE, OR AFTER TURNING IGNITION ON/OFF 1 OR MORE TIMES. THIS ISSUE APPEARS TO BE WIDELY KNOWN BY GM AND OTHER CUSTOMERS, BUT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED YET.

THE VEHICLE HAS A "SHIFT-TO-PARK" ISSUE THAT IS BECOMING WORSE. WHEN THE CAR IS PLACED IN PARK AND THE IGNITION BUTTON DEPRESSED TO TURN OFF THE CAR, AN ERROR LIGHT INDICATES "ACTION REQUIRED: SHIFT-TO-PARK." THE CAR WILL NOT SHUT OFF, THE LIGHTS REMAIN ON, AND THE DOORS CAN NOT BE LOCKED. BY PLAYING WITH THE SHIFT LEVER, SOMETIMES FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, THE CAR FINALLY REALIZES IT IS IN PARK.

SHIFT-TO-PARK ISSUE. WHILE IN PARK, CAR SHOWS ERROR "SHIFT-TO-PARK" AND ELECTRICAL PARTS OF THE CAR WILL NOT TURN OFF. AFTER SHIFTING TO DRIVE/LOW AND THEN BACK TO PARK SEVERAL TIMES, IT SENSES THAT THE GEAR IS IN THE PARK LOCATION AND ALLOWS THE CAR TO BE SHUT OFF. HOWEVER, THIS HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE OVER TIME. MOST RECENT ISSUE TOOK OVER 15 MINUTES OF DOING THIS TO GET THE CAR TO REMOVE THE ERROR AND TURN OFF. ISSUE STARTED AROUND 31,000 MILES. CURRENT MILEAGE AS OF THIS WRITING IS 34,000.

CAR WON'T TURN OFF AFTER I SHIFT TO PARK AND DEPRESS THE POWER BUTTON. INSTEAD THE CAR WANTS ME TO SHIFT TO PARK AGAIN. CAR IS STATIONARY.

WHEN TURNING OFF THE CAR BY HITTING THE POWER BUTTON, THE CENTER CONSOLE WILL SAY "ACTION REQUIRED. SHIFT TO PARK." THE CAR WILL NOT TURN OFF UNTIL THE ISSUE HAS BEEN RESOLVED. I AM USUALLY ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH THIS BY PRESSING AND RELEASING THE SHIFT KNOB SEVERAL TIMES AFTER SHIFTING TO PARK. THE ISSUE BEEN HAPPENING MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY LATELY. I AM AFRAID IT WILL HAPPEN IN A SITUATION WHERE I MAY NEED TO QUICKLY EXIT THE VEHICLE.

AFTER TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE AN "ACTION REQUIRED - SHIFT TO PARK" ERROR OCCURS. THE CAR IS ALREADY IN "PARK" POSITION. THIS STARTED A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO AND IT GETS PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. THE CAR CANNOT BE TURNED OFF AND DOZENS OF TIMES MUST BE STARTED AND GEAR SHIFTED IN DIFFERENT POSITIONS UNTIL, EVENTUALLY, WILL TURN OFF. MANY COMPLAINTS FOR OTHER GEN 2 VOLT USERS AS DESCRIBED AT:: HTTPS://WWW.SANDIEGOCAN.ORG/2019/11/26/ALERT-2017-CHEVROLET-VOLT-SHIFT-TO-PARK-DEFECT/ SINCE THIS IS NOT A SINGULAR EVENT AND IT IS REPLICATED BY MANY USERS, PLEASE MAKE GM RECALL THE VEHICLE AND PROVIDE A FREE FIX.

AFTER I STOP THE CAR, PUT IT IN PARK, AND THEN PRESS "POWER" OFF, I GET AN ALERT ON THE DASHBOARD "ACTION REQUIRED: SHIFT TO PARK" AND THE CAR WILL NOT TURN OFF DESPITE THE FACT THAT IT IS ALREADY IN PARK. THE GEAR SHIFT REQUIRES ADDITIONAL MANIPULATION (TO BE MOVED BACK AND FORTH) BEFORE THE CAR UNDERSTANDS THAT IS IN "PARK".

AFTER CAR IS SHIFTED TO PARK AND IGNITION SWITCH PUSHED TO TURN CAR OFF, DASHBOARD DISPLAYS MESSAGE 'ACTION REQUIRED SHIFT TO PARK' AND CAR WILL NOT SHUT OFF. REPEATED POWERING CAR ON AND OFF, JIGGLING AND MOVING SHIFTER ALL DO NOT REMEDY THE PROBLEM, AND CAR WILL NOT ALLOW SHUTOFF.

MY VOLT WILL NOT TURN OFF WHEN I PUT IT IN PARK. I TRY TO TURN OFF THE CAR AN INDICATOR COMES UP AND SAYS IT'S NOT IN PARK AND IT DOES NOT TURN OFF I LOOKED IT UP LOTS OF 2017 V ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE IT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED AND IT'S $760 TO FIX WHICH IS UNACCEPTABLE THIS CAR IS ONLY FOUR YEARS OLD

THE HMI (HUMAN MACHINE INTERFACE) MODULE, A PRIMARY COMPONENT OF THE VEHICLE'S IN-CABIN COMPUTER SYSTEM, CAN FAIL IN A 2017 CHEVROLET VOLT WHILE THE CAR IS AT REST OR IN MOTION RESULTING IN THE INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE THE VEHICLE'S INSTALLED BACK-UP CAMERA. THE 2017 CHEVROLET VOLT HAS VERY POOR REAR VISIBILITY WITHOUT A BACK-UP CAMERA. IF THE DRIVER IS UNABLE TO SEE CLEARLY BEHIND THE VEHICLE, AN ACCIDENT IS MORE LIKELY TO OCCUR.

AFTER SHIFTING TO PARK TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE A SHIFT TO PARK MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED AND THE VEHICLE CAN NOT BE TURNED OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN GARAGE AND PARKING LOTS.

ACTION REQUIRED: SHIFT TO PARK IS DISPLAYED EVERY TIME CAR IS TURNED OFF. MULTIPLE TIMES PRESSING AND RELEASING THE SHIFT LOCK BUTTON ON THE SHIFT LEVER WHILE ALSO SWITCHING GEAR POSITIONS DOES FIX THE PROBLEM FOR NOW. IT APPEARS TO GET WORSE WITH TIME.

WHEN I SHIFT TO PARK IT DOES NOT RECOGNIZE IT. THE JUST STAYS ON. I HAVE A SERIOUS "SHIFT TO PARK" ISSUE. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE JANUARY OF 2020. IT HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 20 TIMES OVER THE PAST 8 MONTHS AND SEEMS TO BE MORE FREQUENTLY.

WHEN SHIFTING TO PARK AND TURNING OFF THE CAR, THE CAR WON'T TURN OFF AND AN ERROR ON DASH DISPLAYS "SHIFT TO PARK". THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE CAR AND DOCUMENTED ON THE INTERNET. CHEVROLET CLAIMS IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY AND REQUIRES A COST TO FIX.
