Picked up a used 2020 bighorn with 30k miles about a month ago and about 2 weeks ago starting having an intermittent problem where after I start the truck some times it has problems shifting out of park. You have to wiggle the gear selector back and forth some times up to 20 seconds to get it to finally shift. When it does go into drive it’s fine and the gear lever moves back and out of park no problem. I can’t seem to replicate it to take it to the dealer and have them look at it. Doesn’t seem to matter if I pop it in to neutral and use the ebrake before shifting into park and turning it off and it doesn’t seem to matter if I wait after I start it for a minute or more before trying to shift. Doesn’t seem to matter if I release the brake pedal after a failed shift then press it again firmly and try to shift again. I do know about the lever in the steering column you can use to bypass the parking interlock brake thing to shift the truck into neutral before starting and that works but it’s usually faster to wiggle the gear lever for however long. Has anyone on here had this issue?? At the very least I’d like to be able to replicate the problem in front of the dealer before the warranty expires but no luck there. Seems to be fairly random but happens more on some days and not at all on others.
