So I started getting a shift to park message on my 2019 trail boss when I turn my truck off. Has anyone else experienced this? Usually I can start my truck then turn it back off and it'll be fine but now it's getting to the point I have to actually back my truck up and pull it back forward and then turn it off to get the message off and fully turn off my truck.

I have this problem too, so thank you for your posts. The problem had been intermittent, and annoying. And murphy’s law, it didn’t show up when I took the truck to the dealer for the repair; no codes

I have a 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 High Country that does this regularly.  The dealer told me they don't have a fix for it yet.  It is irritating.  Usually it will stop displaying the message after 15-30 seconds.  I start the truck and move the gear shift through the gears if it takes longer.  The truck has less than 10k miles and 13 months old.

My 2019 Sierra does this as well.  I figured I would search here and Google.  Google lead me to a class action suit for the Acadia, which has apparently had this issue since the 2017 model year.  It is annoying for sure, and I can't seem to find any rhyme or reason for it.

I had this same problem in my 2017 Acadia. I did not get it every time but was always worse when I parked on an incline .The dealer replaced a transmission sensor and the problem went away.

Looked into it myself after finding this thread.  There is a micro switch under the column that is bad.  I jumped it and the truck shuts off normally. Trying to find the replacement part now.

Thanks!!! https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/profile/255553-jeremiah-martin/ I have a few months looking to solve this problem yesterday it got real bad wouldn't stop at all from the shift to park message. So did what you mentioned removed the 3  7mm screws removed the bottom cover and jumped the micro switch with a small fuse, boom!!!! Fixed.  Looking for the replacement part but so far so good thanks again!!!

Mine has started to act up more recently.  4 times yesterday alone.  Since I am under warranty, I am going to point it out to the dealer and see if they can replace the micro switch.  If they can, I will report back with a part number.  If they can't, then I will jump mine as well.  This shouldn't be happening at 24K miles.

I just bought a 2019 Silverado 20k miles and have the same issue. Happened twice today and there does not seem to be a standard process to getting the message to go away (start and stopped the car one time and had to actually drive and park again another). Any updates on the micro switch or exactly how to access it for someone that doesn't work on cars a lot?

There is one 7mm (9/32) bolt under the center of the column cover, take that out.  Reach under the dash where the cover goes through the lower panel, and pull the two apart to separate the top half from the bottom.  With the truck running, lift up the top half and turn the wheel right and you will see another bolt.  Remove it and repeat for the other side.  You can see the switch from the left side of the column as pictured above.

 

Reverse the process to put it all back together.

Thanks Sean. I'm taking mine into the dealer on Friday to get it fixed and will see what happens. Let me know if you find the switch (where to purchase) and if it corrects the problem.

I found the steering column parts diagram, but it only appears that the shifting mechanism is sold as a single part. I went the jumper route this morning because it has gotten worse and I’m heading out of town for a week. Hasn’t happened a single time after I jumped the wires, which has been 5 trips around town today.

Before I jumped the wires, I had the switch loose and it did it as soon as I hit the stop button. Bridge the wires with the blade of my pocket knife and it immediately stopped.

Let us know if they do anything to fix it, or replace the switch.

Follow up- I took it into the dealer and they confirmed (and GMC is aware) that there is an issue with the micro-switch (shift lever switch). They replaced the one in my Silverado and said that it has a two year warranty on the part. Part number is 84800776 Description: Control 4.004 N. I have not had the issue since they replaced the micro-switch. Hopefully this helps anyone else that comes across this issue.

      Remote Start Noise 2024 2500 HD Gas

      By BCGM · Posted

      2024 Chevrolet 2500 HD Custom 6.6 Gas Canadian built Truck  I tried to search for my previous thread on this topic but cant find it so my apoligies  for starting another one    #1   Since we have owned our truck purchased new it has this strange noise after using the remote start function  you press the remote start and you hear it start but right at the end of it starting it almost seems like it wants to start again after the truck is running .   There is no gap in time it is right at the end of the start . Almost sounds like when you have started a car/truck and its running and then you try and start it again and you get that grinding noise ,sort of     #2  You can only hear this if you are standing outside of the truck and near the truck  you cant hear it when you start the truck from inside  the cab . So it may very well be happening when starting the truck that way as in normally    #3   This only happens when it is started after sitting . For how long I don't know but it happens after sitting overnight for sure and it wont do it if you stop the engine after starting and then start it again  I have had it in to the Dealership before concerning this but they did not have the truck  when it was cold to hear it . Now its back in the Dealership left it overnight so they could possibly hear the problem . They said they tried and nothing happened . Well they did not know what they were listening for . I started the truck remotely and BINGO it makes the noise . Oh that sounds weird they say . We need to look into it ! I have left for this week at the Dealership    Does your 2024 2500 HD gas do this ?  Any of you fellas care to take the time and trouble to film this operation from a cold start  so I can hear what your sound like  Really  would like to know if this is anormal sound  Thank You Fellas !!

      2026 Z71 Forward and Rear Park Assist help

      By Slow · Posted

      2026 Z71.  The other day I was backing a trailer into the barn.  The alarm was going off just because the trailer was in the field of the warning sensors when you get too close to something.  For some reason now the warning alarm doesn't work anymore.  It used to go off when I was just normally backing my truck into garage.  I still have the guidelines in the back up camera.  Is there a button or something to push to turn the sound/Alarm on and off?  I have the touch screen in this truck.  There isn't a "P" on the dash except for the parking brake.  I can't find anything in the touch screen under settings or vehicle.  Thank you in advance.

      Well one of our most reliable vehicles was sold yesterday. The first and only I gave for free to a grandkid. If they got skin in the game they take care of it. My wife bought new. Five years later my daughter got it to use. We got it back and gave it to our grandson after graduation. He did zero maintenance just oil changes. When the AC quit he drove his mother’s car rather than get it fixed. Instead he just bought a beater and sold the Elantra.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.
