Chevrolet recall 14V092 covers 355 2014 Impala, Verano, Traverse, Malibu, Regal, Acadia, Lacrosse, Enclave, and Cruze vehicles because the transmission shift cable adjuster can disengage from the shift lever. The displayed gear can differ from the actual gear, creating a rollaway risk after parking; the dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?
The automatic transmission shift cable links the gear selector in the cabin to the transmission shift lever under the hood. On these 2014 Chevrolet Impala, Verano, Traverse, Malibu, Regal, Acadia, Lacrosse, Enclave, and Cruze vehicles, that cable tells the transmission which position the driver selected: park, reverse, neutral, or drive.
The problem is the shift cable adjuster, the fitting that holds the cable aligned at the transmission lever. If the adjuster disengages from the lever, the shifter position shown to the driver no longer matches the actual gear at the transmission. The vehicle can be left in a gear other than park even when the selector appears to be in park, which creates a rollaway risk.
There is no warning sign before failure. The first clue can be a shifter that feels wrong, a vehicle that does not respond as expected after shifting, or a vehicle that moves after the driver believes it is in park.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific vehicle.
What's the safety risk?
A disengaged shift cable can leave the indicated shift position out of sync with the transmission gear. When the driver selects PARK, the vehicle can still be out of PARK and roll away as people exit, increasing injury risk to occupants and bystanders. Repair will be free at any franchised Chevrolet dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2014 Chevrolet Impala, Verano, Traverse, Malibu, Regal, Acadia, Lacrosse, Enclave, or Cruze is included in this recall.
- Watch for the owner notice from Chevrolet before scheduling if the dealer says the repair is not open for your VIN.
- Contact a franchised Chevrolet dealer to ask about the free shift-cable-adjuster inspection and replacement that fixes the rollaway risk.
- Reference recall number 14V092 when you call the dealer.
- Bring the recall notice if Chevrolet mailed one to you.
- Set the parking brake every time you park until the repair is complete.
What happens at the repair
The remedy record says the recall began on April 10, 2014. At the dealer, a Chevrolet technician inspects the transmission shift cable adjuster and replaces any adjuster affected by the recall. That part connects the shift cable to the transmission shift lever, so the inspection focuses on whether the adjuster stays secured at the lever. The replacement parts and labor are free under the recall.

Frequently asked questions
What is recall 14V092?
Recall 14V092 covers 355 2014 Chevrolet Impala, Verano, Traverse, Malibu, Regal, Acadia, Lacrosse, Enclave, and Cruze vehicles with automatic transmissions. The transmission shift cable adjuster can disengage from the shift lever, creating a rollaway risk. Dealers inspect and replace affected adjusters for free.
What should I do if my 2014 Chevrolet Impala, Verano, Traverse, Malibu, Regal, Acadia, Lacrosse, Enclave, or Cruze is on this recall?
Check your VIN to confirm your specific vehicle is included in recall 14V092. If it is, contact a franchised Chevrolet dealer and ask for recall number 14V092 or General Motors recall 14048. The dealer will inspect the transmission shift cable adjuster and replace it for free if needed.
Is the recall repair free?
Yes. Federal recall law requires manufacturers to repair the defect at no cost, and General Motors stated that dealers will inspect and replace affected transmission shift cable adjusters free of charge. Parts and labor are covered at the franchised dealer.
What is the safety risk?
The safety risk is vehicle rollaway after the shift cable adjuster disengages. The shifter can show PARK while the transmission is not actually in PARK, allowing the vehicle to move as occupants exit or after they leave. A rollaway increases injury risk for occupants and bystanders.
When did Chevrolet notify owners about recall 14V092?
General Motors began the recall on April 10, 2014. If you bought the vehicle used or never received a letter, the VIN still decides whether the free repair applies. Check your VIN, then reference recall 14V092 when you call the dealer.
