2024 Hisun Sector 550 gear sector binding

[Ductking1]

I recently purchased a 2024 Hisun 550 Sector from Kreps Service Station and am having issues with the gear selector, I am doing as instructed in the owners manual but the shifter acts like it is binding or the button lock isn't releasing, the shifter will not move, I have to wiggle it back and forth while pushing hard on the brake and if it's in park or reverse it's nearly impossible to get it to move, I contacted Justin Krep and he says this is normal with these machines, I find that hard to believe, I've owned many utvs and side x sides and have never had this kind of issue with any of them, any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.

My Hisun 550 (with the Coleman stickers) has a problematic gear shifter.  No release button, but if often will seem to jam especially in moving to reverse. Even when it does work, it is nothing you could describe as smooth.

When it is very stubborn and just won't drop into reverse, I really jam the brake pedal down hard then move to reverse. It seems to work about 90% of the time.  This makes no sense to me but who's to argue when it works most of the time.

These are hastily engineered machines with mediocre quality parts and fitment.   It  may wear in after a while but if it is impossible, get your dealer to adjust it before too long.

Thanks for the welcome, I can't believe how the shifter locks up I talked to Justin Krep about it and he said that's the way they are being cable and not linkage I asked him about adjustments and he said there is none I feel there has to be a reason why and a solution somewhere.

Welcome aboard...it is not normal. Idle too high? Clutch too tight?  Will it shift with engine off?  You can start engine in gear with brake depressed.
