Maybe check if there’s a firmware update available? Sometimes updates fix glitches like this. Just a thought!
Great point! Firmware updates are often overlooked. You can usually check with the dealer for any recalls or updates.
It’s been such a pain! I’m just thankful my Trailblazer doesn’t talk back when I try to shift to park! Imagine that conversation!
Haha! I can picture it now: “Hey, I’m in drive for a reason!” But seriously, don’t let this issue get you down.
Anyone thought to check the brake light switch? If it’s malfunctioning, it can cause shifting issues. Just a thought!
Correct! The brake light switch is crucial for shifting to park. If the lights don’t work, chances are the shift won’t either.
The ‘Shift to Park’ issue can be frustrating! Regular maintenance is key. Check the gear selector and transmission regularly for any signs of wear. Also, clean the gear switch connectors to prevent electrical issues.
I totally agree! I’ve found that keeping the battery terminals clean and tight helps avoid some electronic glitches too.
Don’t forget about those pesky fuses! Check the under-hood fuse box regularly—blown fuses can lead to unexpected electronic behavior.

I suggest upgrading the gear shift assembly if it continues to cause problems. It worked wonders for my cousin’s Trailblazer.
