General Motors (GM) is under scrutiny for continued issues with the “Shift to Park” defect that prevents drivers from shutting off and locking their vehicles. This issue affects owners and lessees of many GMC and Chevrolet model vehicles.

Many of the complaints regarding the shift-to-park issues involve drivers who are forced to constantly wiggle and move the electronic shifter to get it to recognize that the shifter has been placed in the ‘Park’ position. 

This has resulted in drivers getting trapped in their vehicles because the vehicles fail to shift to the ‘Park’ position preventing people from being able to exit their vehicles.

Drivers report that their vehicles routinely fail to recognize that they have been placed into park and display a message urging them to “Shift to Park.”

When this happens, drivers can be left stranded in their vehicles as they are unable to shut them off. Affected vehicles may also roll away if they are not properly in Park.

Is There a GMC Shift to Park Recall in 2025?

No, there is no official recall taking place for the GMC shift to park problem. However, there have been technical service bulletins for this issue since at least 2018, such as TSB PIT5616A.

This TSB discussed a “Shift to Park” message that would appear even when affected vehicles are in “PARK.” GM told dealers that affected vehicles may not shut off while in “PARK” and can fail to start due to an “unknown” cause.

Although the TSB offers directions to help fix the issue, the bulletin ends by saying that it will be updated once “the final root is understood.”

This TSB involved 2017 and 2018 GMC Acadia vehicles, although several other vehicles like the Chevrolet Malibu, Volt, Traverse, and Blazer can also manifest the defect.

Since then, TSB 23-NA-119 was issued in November 2023 and also discusses the same “Shift to Park” message appearing.

What makes this TSB different is that it identifies a potential cause for the issue, stating that “the condition may be caused by a malfunction of the park switch inside of the shifter assembly.”

Technicians are instructed to inspect the terminals at the park switch and replace them if they appear spread or damaged.

The TSB notes the defect to be present in Buick Encore vehicles from 2020-2023, as well as 2021-2023 Chevrolet Trailblazer and 2020-2023 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles.

How GM Dealers Are Attempting to Fix the Problem

As mentioned, the TSBs discuss several things technicians can do to try to fix the problem. The initial 2018 TSB largely discusses troubleshooting methods for technicians to identify the source of the problem.

Those include observing the shift boot and its position, observing the park switch voltage, and verifying that certain cables were properly connected.

With the updated TSB where a cause has been identified, technicians are instructed to inspect the terminals as stated and replace them if need be.

Is There a GM Shift to Park Lawsuit?

Yes, but it only covers older models ranging from 2016 to 2019 model year vehicles. That lawsuit covers the 2017- 2019 GMC Acadia, the 2019 Chevrolet Blazer, 2016-2019 Chevrolet Malibu, 2018 and 2019 Chevrolet Traverse, and 2016- 2019 Chevrolet Volt vehicles, but only if those vehicles were purchased in Ohio and if the consumer sought and received repairs there.

Otherwise, owners of a 2017 or 2018 GMC Acadia who purchased their vehicle in Tennessee and got repairs there are also eligible to join the lawsuit.

If you are eligible to join this class action lawsuit, you will receive $500 for purchasing a defective vehicle and a potentially additional $375 if you paid out of pocket for repairs.

However, it appears that the claim window has closed for new class action members to claim their settlements. Unless that window reopens, the settlement is unobtainable for anyone who did not already join.

Which GM Models Are Impacted by the Shift to Park Defect

A number of vehicles are impacted by this shift to park defect, even if they are not named in either of the TSBs or the lawsuit. Those impacted vehicles can be found below.

• 2016 – 2019 Chevrolet Volt
• 2017 – 2019 GMC Acadia
• 2016 – 2023 Chevrolet Malibu
• 2018 – 2022 Chevrolet Traverse
• 2020 – 2023 Buick Encore GX
• 2021 – 2023 Chevrolet Trailblazer 
• 2021 – 2023 Chevrolet Blazer

Cost of Repairs and Warranty Coverage Questions

Repairs for this issue are reported to cost between $500 and $1,000 according to consumers but could be covered by certain warranties like a bumper-to-bumper warranty that some GMC vehicles come with.

Consumers also mention the repair taking about an hour to complete, with some being slightly faster and some being slightly slower.

Shift to Park issues should be covered under warranty if they first appeared during the warranty period. Unfortunately, several Acadia drivers say that GM is not honoring their New Vehicle Limited Warranty.

These warranties supposedly cover “repairs to correct any vehicle defect, not slight noise, vibrations, or other normal characteristics of the vehicle due to materials or workmanship occurring during the warranty period.

Needed repairs will be performed using new, remanufactured, or refurbished parts.” When GM refuses to honor warranties, consumers get stuck with the bill.

What to Do If Your Vehicle Still Has Shift to Park Issues

Even though the class action lawsuit has closed, consumers are not left totally without a remedy. If your vehicle is a 2020 model year or newer and is still covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, you may be eligible for compensation under the lemon law in your state.

The lemon law process serves as a vital protection for consumers who purchase or lease vehicles that turn out to be defective and unreliable.

When a car experiences recurring mechanical or electrical issues that affect its safety, use, or value, and those issues persist even after multiple repair attempts, the law gives the owner the right to seek compensation or a replacement.

The process begins with recognizing that the problem is not just a minor inconvenience, but a continuing defect that the manufacturer has failed to fix properly.

Once that pattern becomes clear, the consumer can begin building a record to support a potential claim.

Keeping careful documentation is essential. Each visit to the dealership should produce a repair order or invoice detailing the complaint, the attempted repair, and how long the vehicle was out of service.

These records demonstrate that the manufacturer was given reasonable opportunities to correct the defect but could not do so.

In many states, if a vehicle spends a significant number of days in the shop or the same issue reappears several times, it may qualify as a lemon under the law.

A detailed paper trail strengthens the consumer’s case and prevents manufacturers from denying or minimizing the problem.

Once sufficient evidence is gathered, the next step is to notify the manufacturer in writing. This formal notice typically gives the automaker one final opportunity to repair the issue.

If the defect remains unresolved after that, the consumer can move forward with a lemon law claim. Depending on the case, remedies may include a full refund of the purchase price, a comparable replacement vehicle, or a cash settlement that compensates for the defect’s impact.

Additionally, if the consumer prevails in their claim, the manufacturer is required to cover their attorneys’ fees, making it an excellent option for those who qualify.

Below are some examples of settlements we have obtained for clients in the past.

Affected Vehicle	Average Settlement
Chevrolet Malibu	$47,157
Chevrolet Traverse	$71,578
Buick Encore GX	$48,241
Chevrolet Trailblazer	$43,268
Chevrolet Blazer	$66,630

In November 2022, General Motors (GM) announced a massive recall of over 300,000 full-sized SUVs from model year 2021. The recall affects popular models such as the Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban, and GMC Yukon and Yukon XL. The recall has been initiated due to a critical issue with the daytime running lights in these vehicles.

About one year later, the American automaker announced another major recall in late 2022. This time, GM recalled 825,000 trucks and SUVs manufactured in North America because daytime running lights might not deactivate when the headlights in affected vehicles are turned on, which can cause excess glare to other drivers on the road. GM says they are not aware of any injuries or accidents pertaining to the headlight issue.

Federal motor vehicle safety standards mandate that a vehicle’s daytime running lights must turn off when the headlights are turned on. A software glitch in affected vehicles may result in violations of this safety standard since daytime running lights remain on even when the headlights are turned on. This can pose a severe safety hazard to drivers as it may cause glare and potentially blind other motorists on the road.

GM Headlight Recall Overview

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108 was created to establish the safety standards for motor vehicles in the United States. This standard specifies the requirements for lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment in vehicles.

It sets guidelines for the use of lighting equipment on vehicles, including daytime running lights. According to this standard, a vehicle’s daytime running lights must turn off when the headlights are on to prevent confusion and reduce the risk of accidents.

However, reports indicate that certain General Motors vehicles may not meet this requirement, potentially posing a safety hazard to drivers and other road users.

The affected vehicles, including some Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Tahoe, Chevrolet Suburban, and GMC Yukon models, have a problem with their daytime running lights. These lights may remain on even when the headlights are switched on, which is a violation of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108.

GMC Headlight Recall

GMC vehicles that may present the headlight problem include the following:

• 2020-2023 Buick Envision
• 2020-2023 GMC Sierra 1500
• 2020-2023 GMC Yukon
• 2020-2023 GMC Yukon XL

Chevy Headlight Recall

Chevrolet vehicles that may have malfunctional headlights include 2020-2023:

• Chevrolet Silverado 1500
• Chevrolet Suburban
• Chevrolet Tahoe

Cadillac Headlight Recall

The following 2020-2023 Cadillac vehicles may have the headlight safety defect:

• Cadillac CT4
• Cadillac CT5
• Cadillac Escalade
• Cadillac Escalade ESV

What causes the GM headlight issues?

According to General Motors, the headlight issue in their full-sized SUVs from the 2021 model year is caused by a software problem. Specifically, the problem is with the programming of the body control module, which controls various functions in the vehicle, including the daytime running lights.

Does the manufacturer have a fix?

GM announced that they would provide software updates for owners of affected vehicles, free of charge. Note that manufacturers are obligated to provide free recall fixes due to certain safety regulations and consumer protection laws.

When a safety issue is discovered in a vehicle, the manufacturer must take prompt action to correct the problem and protect consumers. This includes issuing a recall, notifying owners of the affected vehicles, and providing a free repair or replacement to fix the issue.

What makes and models are affected?

To know if your 2020-2023 GM vehicle is included in any active headlight recalls, you can plug in your 17-digit vehicle identification number (VIN) into this tool provided by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHSTA).

What options do I have?

These recent General Motors recalls have affected hundreds of thousands of vehicles and left many car owners wondering what options are available to them if they have been affected.

One option is to join a class-action lawsuit, which is a legal action taken on behalf of a group of people who have suffered similar harm or loss due to a company’s wrongdoing. This is often seen as an attractive option as it allows individuals to pool their resources together, share legal costs, and pursue justice as a collective unit.

Joining a class-action lawsuit, however, may not always be the best option for everyone. In some cases, individual claims may be more effective.

Filing an individual claim can provide a greater level of control over the outcome of the case and may result in a larger settlement or award. Moreover, it can help individuals avoid some of the potential drawbacks of a class-action lawsuit, such as a lower payout, a longer wait time for resolution, and a lack of personal attention to their unique circumstances.

It is important to weigh the pros and cons of each option carefully and seek legal advice to determine which option is best for you if you have been affected by the General Motors recall. Additionally, it is crucial to understand the specifics of your situation, such as the extent of the harm you have suffered, the available evidence, and your personal preferences.

This information can help you make an informed decision about whether to join a class-action lawsuit or file an individual claim. Whatever decision you make, it is important to act promptly, as there may be time limitations for filing a claim or joining a lawsuit.

Over the years, General Motors (GM) has paid millions in class action settlements pertaining to ignition switch issues. Most recently in 2020, the automaker was ordered to pay a $121.1 million class action settlement to resolve a suit that accuses the automaker of selling vehicles with defective ignition switches.

Allegedly, there is an issue with the switch circuitry in affected vehicles, which causes the ignition to change from an “on” position to “auxiliary” or “standby” mode. When this happens, the vehicle may shut off suddenly or fail to activate the airbags in an accident. The 2021 GM ignition switch lawsuit argued that issues with the ignition switch increase the risk of accidents with severe outcomes due to possible airbag failure.

GM’s ignition switch has been allegedly linked to approximately 124 deaths and over 275 injuries. It took GM nine years to admit that this vehicle component is in fact defective. The American automaker has been recalling millions of its vehicles due to this issue since 2005. Company emails have surfaced that GM ordered millions of replacement ignition switches prior to announcing several of these recalls.

One massive recall by the automaker occurred in February 2014. General Motors recalled about 800,000 vehicles due to poorly designed ignition switches that can shut off the engine at any time or interfere with airbag deployment. The auto manufacturer began to add even more GM vehicles to the recall in the following months, raising the original total to at least 30 million recalled vehicles worldwide.

GMC Ignition Switch Settlement Overview

The defect has allegedly been linked to 124 deaths and 275 injuries in the United States alone. Auto experts argue that those numbers may be even higher. Several of these incidents were head-on collisions in which either the airbags failed to deploy and or the car’s engine shut off entirely while driving. GM has allegedly known about the safety risks involving the defective ignition switch for approximately 13 years.

The costs associated with the GM ignition switch problem have been tremendous, both in lives and money lost. The automaker’s estimated expenses related to this issue are well over $1.2 billion.

Who Can Join the GM Ignition Switch Lawsuit?

The 2021 GM ignition switch class action settlement deadline has already passed. Consumers affected by any of the following five GM recalls were eligible to join the original suit:

• Delta Ignition Switch (NHTSA Recall No. 14v047)
• Key Rotation (NHTSA Recall Nos. 14v355, 14v394, and 14v400)
• Camaro Knee-Key (NHTSA Recall No. 14v346)
• Electronic Power Steering (NHTSA Recall No. 14v153)
• Side Airbag (NHTSA Recall No. 14v118)

The deadline to opt-out of the latest ignition switch suit was on October 20, 2020. The GM ignition switch settlement amount was approved on December 18, 2020, with 49 states and the District of Columbia all receiving part of the payout.

How do I Know if my GM Vehicle is Affected?

GM vehicles with defective ignition switch components may shut off suddenly while driving. Affected drivers may also notice airbag warning lights, disabling of the airbags, or airbag failure. Your GM vehicle may be affected by the ignition switch issue if it is included in any of the recalls above.

Which Makes and Models are Affected?

The ignition switch in question can be found in various Cadillac and Chevrolet vehicles including:

• Cadillac CTS
• Cadillac SRX
• Chevrolet Camaro
• Chevrolet Cobalt
• Chevrolet Impala
• Chevrolet Malibu

How Much Money Can Someone Get?

This depends on whether you accept a class action settlement or pursue an individual lemon law claim. In a class-action suit, the settlement is divided amongst a group of claimants. In a lemon law case, the claimant could receive far more in compensation for their defective car. A class action settlement may offer you some reimbursement, however, through a lemon law settlement, you could be eligible for more.

With a successful lemon law claim, a consumer can get a refund, a replacement vehicle, or cash compensation plus the payment of one’s attorneys fees and costs. A lemon law refund consists of the reimbursement of the following costs associated with the lemon vehicle:

• Down payment
• All monthly payments
• Taxes
• Registration
• Rental fees
• Towing expenses
• Attorney fees / costs

With a lemon law refund, the auto manufacturer is entitled to deduct a usage fee from the refund, which is a value for when the consumer drove the vehicle trouble-free.

Why Should a Consumer Pursue an Individual Case and Not Join a Class Action?

Consumers generally get larger recoveries with individual claim than through a class action lawsuit. A class action settlement generally provides all claimants similar amounts in damages, even if their cases and repair costs vary. In a successful individual lemon law claim, the auto manufacturer reimburses the individual for all costs associated with their specific lemon.

Should I Pursue a Lemon Law Case or a Class Action Settlement?

A class action lawsuit allows multiple people with similar grievances against the same manufacturer to come together and file one complaint instead of multiple individual complaints.

If you chose to accept the gm ignition switch class action settlement or if you did NOT manually opt-out of the class action lawsuit, then you cannot pursue an individual lemon law claim. Through an individual lemon law claim, you have an opportunity to receive compensation for your individual case, instead of splitting up compensation with other claimants.

Without speaking with an experienced lemon law attorney, it is difficult to know if your vehicle qualifies for a lemon law claim. To do so, your GM car must have a substantial defect that cannot be repaired despite several repair attempts to get it fixed. These defects affect a vehicle’s use, value, and or safety. Typically, substantial defects:

• Diminish the value of the vehicle
• Prevent you from driving the vehicle as it was intended to be driven
• Place the driver and others in danger

The problem with your vehicle does not necessarily have to be safety-related to qualify under lemon law. If your car has been out of service for repairs for several cumulative days and the problem still has not been fixed, it may be lemon, regardless of the nature of the car’s issues. Lemon problems can range from engine shutdown to rear camera failure to faulty airbags, inoperable infotainments systems, and much, much more.

Because both the state lemon law and the federal lemon law are complex to interpret, the best way to know if you are eligible to pursue an individual claim is by working with a reputable lemon law attorney who can evaluate your case and determine if you have a valid claim.

A lemon law lawyer can also help you navigate important class action lawsuit deadlines so that you can opt-out on time and pursue an individual claim. Keep in mind that you cannot pursue an individual claim for a specific vehicle defect if that defect is included in any class-action suits that you did not opt out of before the deadline.

GMC Oil Consumption Lawsuit Overview

This week, a California federal jury has ordered General Motors (GM) to pay over $102.6 million to three different classes of GM vehicle owners. Plaintiffs of a suit filed in 2016 accuse the Michigan-based automaker of knowingly selling vehicles with serious engine defects.

GM drivers say that the manufacturer hid a glaring engine defect that causes excessive oil consumption in certain GM vehicle models. The fault mainly lies in the automaker’s Vortex 5.3-liter V8 engine, which has been installed in thousands of GM trucks and SUVs.

The suit alleges that GM was aware of a defect in the piston rings of affected vehicles that could result in irregular oil consumption. Excessive oil consumption is a serious issue that can result in stalling, internal engine damage, or premature engine breakdowns in these vehicles.

Jurors ultimately decided that GM had breached its implied warranty of merchantability to California plaintiffs; its implied warranty of merchantability to North Carolina plaintiffs; and the provisions of the Idaho Consumer Protection Act.

The settlement affects approximately 38,000 GM drivers from California, North Carolina, and Idaho. Each vehicle owner included in the class-action lawsuit will receive approximately $2,700 from the final settlement.

GMC Oil Consumption Recall Overview

The 2016 suit claims that internal documents from GM show that the automaker was aware of the engine problem as early as 2010. Over the next four years, GM responded with poor, ineffective remedies to the issue and continued to build new engines and cars. The company does not have an official remedy for the problem, nor has it issued any recalls.

GM is currently contesting the 2022 settlement. The company says that it does not believe the verdict is supported by any evidence presented during the trial. GM is seeking post-trial relief and has plans to appeal the multimillion-dollar verdict. Class action lawsuits involving similar concerns have been previously dismissed in Ohio, Virginia, and Washington.

Last month in a separate GM oil consumption lawsuit filed against GM in Georgia, a federal judge denied GM the motion to dismiss claims that it had manufactured defective engines.

GMC Terrain oil consumption recall

2014-2017 GMC Terrain SUVs and 2014-2017 Chevrolet Equinox vehicles are not included in the latest GMC oil consumption lawsuit payout however, these GM models are also known for irregular oil consumption problems. Although GM has not issued any official recall for excessive oil consumption issues in either vehicle, the automaker has issued extended coverage to owners and lessees of certain Equinox and Terrain vehicles. The special coverage offers coverage for engine problems resulting from excessive piston ring wear.

Is it possible to fix my GMC’s oil consumption issue?

It does not appear that GM has a fix for the oil consumption issue. Reportedly, an engineer for GM testified during the trial that the manufacturer had developed a cleaning remedy that could have been a potential fix for the oil consumption issue but that it was ineffective. This led GM employees and engineers to recommend that the company make changes to the piston ring design. These design changes did not fix the problem either, oil consumption issues continued in vehicles produced following these changes.

Is excessive oil consumption covered under warranty?

This issue may not be covered under the GM warranty. Several drivers report that they have had to pay for engine repairs entirely out-of-pocket because GM refused to cover the costs of these specific repairs.

Which GM Models are affected?

The following GM models may be affected:

• Chevrolet Avalanche
• Chevrolet Equinox
• Chevrolet Impala
• Chevrolet Silverado
• Chevrolet Suburban
• GMC Sierra
• GMC Terrain
• GMC Yukon
• GMC Yukon XL

The lawsuit that concluded this week also includes trucks and SUVS sold with Generation IV Vortec 5300 LC9 engines.

Note that although 2014-2017 Chevrolet Equinox and 2014-2017 GMC Terrain SUVs may also have oil consumption issues, these vehicles are equipped with 2.4-L Ecotec engines and are thus excluded from the class-action settlement. Three separate lawsuits against GM allege that the Equinox and Terrain, like other vehicles listed above, may have a manufacturing defect in their piston rings. Owners and lessees of these vehicles may be eligible to pursue individual lemon law claims.

Can you file a GM Lemon Lawsuit?

If your vehicle is not included as part of the class action lawsuit, you may still move forward with an individual lemon law claim against General Motors.

The settlement in the 2016 lawsuit will be divided among 38,000 members, with each owner or lessee receiving only $2,700. That amount likely cannot cover the total repair costs that these drivers may have paid for out-of-pocket.

If your vehicle is excluded from this latest settlement, your case may qualify for lemon law compensation in the form of a refund, replacement vehicle, or cash compensation.  To determine if you qualify, we recommend that you speak with a reputable lemon law attorney in your area as soon as possible.

What are my options?

Your best option to address serious engine issues in your vehicle would be to contact a reputable lemon law attorney. Vehicles with engine problems like stalling or excessive oil consumption may be considered “lemons” under both state and federal law. Lemons are vehicles that have serious manufacturing defects that affect their safety, value, and use. The following engine-related defects are all covered under California’s lemon laws:

• Check Engine Light
• Engine Misfire
• Engine Failure
• Excessive Oil Consumption
• Fluid Leaks
• Stalling
• Strange Engine Noise

If you live in California and are experiencing engine problems or other issues with your vehicle, the Lemon Law Experts may be able to help you maximize your lemon law rights and remedies. Our experienced lemon law attorneys can review the details of your case to determine if you qualify for a California lemon law claim. By pursuing an individual lemon law claim, you may qualify for a lemon law refund that consists of receiving all monies you spent towards the vehicle, minus a usage fee, and the reimbursement of your incidental and consequential costs related to your lemon vehicle, plus the payment of your attorney fees.
