    So I noticed an error in editing as the video has a quick count down. I was editing 2 videos at the same time so won't happen again. Enjoy

    I did this repair on my 18 malibu 2 years ago and it's doing the same thing again. Looks like I know what I'm doing this weekend

      fun times, I would just bend the tab if it keeps going out.

    I replaced the whole shifter assembly and jumper and I am still getting shift to park, is there a relay or fuse that I can check?

    So my car was hit and I’ve been rebuilding it I’ve done this and I still get the error message after replacing everything what else could be throwing the shirt to park ?

    so what is the approximate cost of this repair if it isn't covered by warranty? assuming the work will be completed through dealership service center

    • @HITekRC

      for a dealership cost I'm not sure. if you watch the video you can pop off the cover and bend the lever down a bit and it will fix the issue.

    I was having a similar issue for my 2017 chevy malibu until my wife taught me how to turn my car off. Do this... after you shift to park, don't just press the start/end button "anyhow". Take your time and turn off your car spending about 1-2 sec. I have been doing this for the past three months and that "shift to park" issue has completely stopped

      Part of the micro switch failure is forcing it into park baby the thing and it should last longer and also going too fast can cause the lever to miss the arm on the switch. But eventually they will fail as they are just terrible designs to start with.

    I have the same issue! 2018 Chevy Malibu bought new January 2019!

      If its a car and has no warranty you can try bending the tab for the micro switch shown in the video and it should work. if not the switch or the shifter will need to ne replaced.

    Can I just solder in a new switch ?

  • @gunnarcorda5258

    Or you can use gm fix and don’t change our the whole shifter part 15$ takes 5 min

    • @HITekRC

      Yeah you can replace just the micro switch but the company that covers this car doesn't allow those repairs, they require a new assembly. Also the repair does require you to splice the new part into the shifter harness.
