Removed the shift knob, the quadrant 'gate', the indicator housing and then the cable clip to get at what I needed to switch out. Car is long gone now.

bought used from Carmax 44,000 miles. Carmax would cover it.....if they could duplicate it!

If the interlock solenoid was sticking, that was likely because of things (drinks, etc.) getting spilled into the shifter.....
The 2011 has the leather boot, so, spillage should not be the problem. Plus they seem to have changed everything involved in 2010.

@donbrew, very cool. Also keep in mind that the manufacturer’s warranty goes with the car. If you would like me to look this information up, send me a private message with the VIN.

I hope you have a wonderful New Year’s Eve celebrating and be safe.

Michelle, Chevrolet Customer Service
I’ll be out of the office from 4:30pm EST today through 01/01/13.
