I have fired off a letter to Chevy Customer Service, probably futile, complaining that this failure is not mileage-related, but due to a component that should last the life of the car but is failing prematurely. I included pdf's of the posts from the last 2 years on this subject. I even offered to pay dealer labor if they would man up and supply the improved part on extended warranty.
While waiting for my form letter reply I offer these work-arounds for this intermittent problem: stop in N, shut off, shift to P; pause for 5 seconds in P before shut-off; open door before shifting to P; placing remote in glasses pocket next to shifter before shut-off. Sometimes these work, sometimes not. The problem seems to be confined to '16's/17's.
