Ignition Switch problems of the 2011 Cadillac CTS

Letter from senator markey on behalf of constituent re 2011 Cadillac Cts recall notice. The consumer received an ignition recall notice in the summer of 2014. The consumer assumed the dealer was going to replace the faulty ignition switch. However, they only removed the other keys from his key ring.

Due to the recent gm problems with ignition switch I wanted to file this complaint on my 2011 Cadillac Cts as I am not hearing my car mentioned for recall. Twice within the first couple months of owning the Cts I started to accelerate into traffic from a stopped position and the car completely shut off like a light switch flipping. No sound was made but simply everything lost all power and forced me to coast into traffic. . . Twice!! I threw the car into neutral to try and restart it with no luck. It wouldn't even turnover. I had to come to a full stop (coasting to side of road after having traffic fly by me on a 3 lane highway) and then the car would restart like nothing happened. I took the Cts to ken dixon chevy/Cadillac (now waldorf Cadillac) in waldorf, MD and also to capitol Cadillac in greenbelt, MD. The techs told me the car showed no errors on the computer and also they could find no fault on the car and returned it to me. One tech did mention something about a heavy keychain could cause this. I passed him my keys and he said that my keys certainly shouldn't cause that due to the light weight. I am still driving the car and this latest news from gm has me very scared to drive this car in washington, DC traffic and put me and my family at daily risk. I posted this problem on the edmunds. Com Cadillac Cts car forum in March of 2012. No action was taken by gm customer service.
