2022 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER Unknown Or Other Problems

“Shift to Park” message came on the dashboard. Car would not change gear or go into reverse or drive. Basically stuck in Park position. Car kept peeping sound nonstop for over 20 minutes. And it drained the battery. Car would not drive. Had to have it towed to the dealership I brought it from 45 miles away. I had to pay $656.72 at dealership to get it fixed. The dealership removed and replaces the shifter assembly which cost $656.72.

The exhaust and muffler completely detached from the catalytic converter/exhaust manifold while driving down the road. If we were driving at a higher rate of speed, the exhaust pipe could've caught on any imperfection on the roadway and shot the rear end of the vehicle up and then potentially caused an accident/death. This has happened to many I have discovered upon further research and is a common problem with the vehicle according to the dealership. Vehicle has been towed to the dealership to be inspected and/or repaired. Zero warning signals, lamps, or messages.

The front exhaust assembly is leaking. There’s many reports online for the same year and vehicle about bolts rusting out. Some still under warranty (36,000 miles, ridiculous!), and some not, like mine. I have 36,800 miles, of course out of warranty. GM has a problem with these exhaust systems, and should be recalled. Thank you

The bolts attaching my muffler to my exhaust pipe sheared off of my 30,000 mile 2022 chevy trailblazer at highway speed, launching them into my muffler. My exhaust pipe dropped-at 70 miles an hour it could have ripped off, and I am lucky the bolts went into my muffler and not something more vital. Also, If the pipe or muffler had fallen, I-or someone behind me- could have run over it causing potential control issues. I am seeing that this is a common problem on various consumer forums. There was NO warning- didn't even get a check engine light after the fact- things just got REALLY loud. I was fortunate to be close to an exit (as I was in a construction zone) and was able to get a tow to the nearest dealership.

hift to park The vehicle began to display 'Shift to Park' on the display even after the vehicle was in the park position. 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. Vehicle has only 23,478 miles. 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.

The gear handle, when I place in park, will NOT park, therefore, I am not able to turn off my car. I have to jiggle, push start button and try over and over. This is a 2 .5 year old vehicle.Warning alert comes on stating the obvious, Unable to park! Also, it sounds like when I do drive of like the dragging, rough sound, which sounds like the gear is not fully in drive. Again, this is a new vehicle. It is unsafe and getting worse. Thank you.

Issue: When the vehicle is put into park and the ignition is turned off, the vehicle may not recognize that it is in park and a message will appear. This can make it difficult to turn off the ignition and remove the key. The “Shift to Park” message appears in the Driver Information Center of my 2022 Chevy Trailblazer. The cause of this is a malfunction in the park switch inside the shifter assembly of my Chevy Trailblazer. My local Chevy dealer advised me that some vehicles are getting recalls for this issue, however my vehicle has not. There are currently two Class Action Lawsuits pending on this issue - one in Tennessee and one in Ohio. I would just like my repair to fall under a recall since there are so many issues throughout the United States on this part it does not seem fair that I should have to pay almost $500.00 (Parts and labor) for something Chevy knows is defective.

I get a "Shift to Park" error message even though the car is in the park position as all indicator says it's in park. If I wiggle the shifter it would go away and come back on when i drive it again. On November 1st I came home from work and it would go off at all, I tried everything, wiggling the shifter, put in drive and back in park took if for ride around the block and it still would go off even after 20 minutes. My husband had to remove one of the battery terminal so the battery would die. It did reset it for a few days but now it's back. I reported the issue to the dealer the first time it happen but they can't get me for 3 weeks. This is a hazer if it doesn't go off as I can't lock my car and my husband isn't always with me especially when I go to work.

When I shift into park and turn the engine off a warning signal and bell goes off, telling me to put the car into park, when I have already done so. This has happened three times. 09/30/24 10/14/24 10/2824

When I shift my vehicle into Park and attempt to turn off the car, the computer gives me an error message, "Shift to Park, " even when the vehicle is securely shifted into park. With this error message engaged, I am unable to turn the vehicle off and lock it. I end up spending several minutes trying to convenience the computer that the car is indeed in park, by shifting it so it registers.

Car is not registering when it is not in park. This should be covered under the warranty or a recall as it is a common issue for this vehicle.

Nearly every time I park my car and shut it off a message pops up on the message board that says SHIFT TO PARK even though it is in park. I have to restart my car MULTIPLE times and shift to another gear and back into park before the message goes away. This has been happening for a couple of weeks but is getting more frequent.

when parking vehicle, warning comes on to place vehicle in park although it already is. Engine will shut off, but dash will not and it continuously dings. This causes the battery to die. This happens every time I drive my trailblazer and the dealership states there is no quick fix but to continue trying to put it in park repeatedly until alert goes away. Through research GM and Chevy vehicles have had this same issue for many years with no recall. I demand a recall as this is a safety issue after being stranded due to battery dying if alert is unable to be cleared with workarounds.

Alerting to shift to park and not turning off while vehicle is already in park

We own a 2022 Chevy Trailblazer and we have experienced the “shift to park” issue more times than we can count. We receive the “shift to park” message on the dash screen after the car has been shifted to park and we attempt to turn the vehicle off. This problem has caused me to be late to my job on numerous occasions and late to an exam that determines my graduation at school. Many users report being able to just shift through the gears a couple times or wiggling the gear shift and it shuts off, but that is not always my case. I have, on a few occasions now, had to remove my gear shift knob and panel completely, locating the park switch and manually bending it to recognize that my car was in park. Doing this will typically subside the issue for about a week, but no longer than that. We have tried to have the dealership see the message when taking it in for other things, but it never seems to happen when they are watching. There were no other issues with this vehicle before this started happening. We purchased the vehicle in February with about 44,000 miles. This issue has instilled fear in me every time I go to shut my vehicle off never knowing if it will actually shut off or not. Dramatic or not, it has caused unwanted anxiety and too many mental breakdowns that were not needed. This needs to be addressed and fixed ASAP!

My 2022 Trailblazer has had a shift to park issue. It’s hazardous as I have to constantly park my car in reverse to get the “shift to park” message off my dashboard screen. My car doesn’t shut off properly with this issue. My car is only at 19,700 miles. It should not be having this issue.

Shift Park issue - I bought the car 10 days ago and now start to have an issue when I park the car, put the car in the parking mode and turn off.

I read it’s a common issue in 2022 Chevrolet Trailblazers.

Car will not allow me to fully turn off vehicle, keeps sending message “shift to park”.

“Shift to park” alert. It started after the car had 29,000 miles. It would occur occasionally but on Jan 4th of this year, I had to restart and move my car 11 times in order for the alert to be cancelled and I was able to shut off my car. I have been told there is no parts available by the dealer who has my car and they don’t know when the work will be done!

“shift to park” on my dash screen preventing me from locking my car and the accessories all remain on. I have to disconnect my battery otherwise my car dies if it remains on.

When vehicle is in park and you try to shut it off, you get the error message “Shit to Park” and you are unable to shut the vehicle off. You have to switch between the gears a few times before the vehicle shuts off. I’ve done this a few times and have even been late for work because the car won’t shut off.

When I park my car, I get a warning to "shift to park" even though my car is in park. This prevents me from turning off my car.

Again on 7/15/23 while coming back from North Carolina the AC unit stopped working. It is only blowing out warm arm. We stopped at the South Carolina welcome center to shut the car off and see if that corrected it. It didn’t. It is scheduled to go into the dealership on Wednesday 7/19/23. I had OnStar run a diagnostic on it to see if anything showed up and was told nothing came up to explain why the AC UNIT stopped working.

On 7/8/23 while taking a trip to North Carolina the AC unit stopped working. I was struggling to do anything and making a rattling noise. This occurred from 7am-3pm. We had shut the vehicle off many times to see if that would allow the AC to begin working normally again and it did nothing until 3pm.

Upon shutting off the ignition, my car tells me to "shift to park" each time and it is already in park. Takes several minutes for it to finally register that is already in park.
