2013 Chevy Sonic Shift Button Sticking Safety Issue

100 miles! get a hold of GM corporate, the dealer might not give you warranty but head office can authorize it

No they do, but this just sounds like something an American car would have happen to it.

Wow how fast you forget about the Toyota, Lexus recall of cars just shutting off while being driven? How about the current Honda recalls over airbags? Are you forgetful? Crazy? Or just not paying attention? And if you are so anti American car why are you trolling a forum about American cars?

What was the number of miles when you bought the car? Because unless it was exactly 0 you have play room on the warranty. Mine had 106 at purchase from test driving so I had until 36106 the dealership needs to look at that instead of discounting it as 36000 it's over. But how you shift, completely pushing brake before taking out of park and all is important to the car. As said one car does not a recall make. I've had my car since 2012 never a problem with anything and the only recall was the transmission one that was done even though mine never had any trouble

this is why i would never buy an american car.

Sonic is a rebranded Aveo, designed by a company formally known as Daewoo on a platform designed by Opal.

Gotta watch those American cars....

This.....

From what I gather, GM is actually pretty good at taking care of the customer once you actually give them a call.

Dealers may sell GM products but don't confuse Dealerships with GM itself.
Real curious to see how corporate handles it.

I can verify this, my car was 4 years out of warranty when the power seat frame cracked at a weld-point. I called the "GM goodwill#" and explained that since the seat-belt is bolted to the seat itself GM would have invented the first consumer "ejection-seat" if I were involved in a frontal collision, plus a seat-frame is something that should last the life of the vehicle unless it was subjected to water or the driver was obese. GM had me bring the car to the dealer and GM ponied up for the frame, ($650) and the dealer did the labor for free, ($400).
