Chevrolet on these vehicles, the tabs on the transmission shift cable end may fracture and separate.
The short version
General Motors LLC reported a problem with the automatic transmission gear position indication (prndl). Here is what owners need to know.
On these vehicles, the tabs on the transmission shift cable end may fracture and separate.
If the tabs were to fracture and separate, the shift lever and the actual position of the transmission gear may not match. The driver would be able to move the shifter to 'PARK' and remove the ignition key, but the transmission gear may not be in 'PARK.' The vehicle may not be able to be restarted and the vehicle could roll away after the driver has exited the vehicle, resulting in a possible crash without prior warning.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will install a retainer over the cable end or replace the shift cable as necessary, free of charge.
