The vehicle began to display ‘Shift to Park’ on the display even after the vehicle was in the park position. This started periodically over a few days, but then became a regular occurrence within a week. At first this could be resolved by shifting back out of park and back into park, but that became less effective as time went on. The vehicle will not shutdown fully when this warning is displayed and therefore can cause a battery drain condition, which can result in a safety risk returning to a vehicle with a weak or dead battery. This occurred at 37 months of ownership with ~28,100 miles on the vehicle. In researching to understand the problem, I discovered that there are many instances of this same issue occurring at about the same time period, as well as there being several class action lawsuits on the identical issue, which shows that it isn’t isolated. Further, the cost of this repair is a replacement of the shifter assembly at nearly $700 on a $24,000 vehicle less than 3 years old, because the failed inexpensive switch isn’t repairable. Repair information is available, but the system isn’t allowing for an upload of the files.
