Car looses power out of no where. No lights are on or anything
I went to put car in park and when it was in park I was still getting shift to park alert on dashboard. With this alert I was unable to turn off the vehicle. After about 30 minutes the first time it happened I was able to get it to acknowledge the car was in park by moving my car around parking lot and shifting from drive to park. The next day it happened again but this time I had to jiggle the shifter to get it to go into park after trying for about 30 minutes. The alert basically trapped me in a car that would not turn off. I took it to the dealer service center the next day and was told it is a common problem with my car. Repair bill was $400 and told it was not a recall or something gm would warranty.
