Shift To Park displays in instrument panel when car is in Park. From my research this has been happening on GM cars since 2018, why is there no recall on this issue? People pay to get this replaced and then it happens again because GM has a "potential" fix, they are not even sure which part is causing the issue. Please help, I cannot afford to get this fixed and of course this happened right after the bumper-to-bumper warranty expired. Tech not sure if it would be covered under the Power train warranty, but mostly likely not since GM really does not know what part is causing the issue, so I'm sure they will say its anything but the Powertrain! NHTSA should be protecting consumers, this is a very old issue, and GM is still selling vehicles with this issue! Force them to do a recall, it's only fair to the consumers.

Leased this car at the end of March. When I attempted to install the car seat for my grandson I could not find the LATCH anchors. My sales rep attempted to find them and could not. I finally was told to make a service appointment and the service manager could not find them. He contacted GM and after getting a response from them told me they are an "option" and I could have them order parts 20788228 and 20788229 and install them. I called GM customer service and after several calls from them they signed me up for GM Rewards and told me I could use my Reward points to pay for the parts and installation. The rep also told me that none of these cars have the anchors. This is a safety issue! And it's my understanding that these anchors are a requirement in new cars. My owners manual describes and pictures "lower anchors built into the vehicle, " but they are definitely not there. I am now using a booster seat without any tethers which I feel is unsafe. I am complaining not because of the cost of adding the anchors, but because this is a safety issue that no one at GM seems to understand is a legal requirement. I don't blame my dealer - Cappellino Buick, Williamsville, NY but I am surprised at their service department's lack of knowledge in this area. GM told the service manager, Vincent Marino, "it looks like the child restraint plates are sold separately."
