Yes I have a 2001 Cadillac Deville I've contacted Cadillac/gm about the ignition switch recall they have informed me my car is'nt on the recall but I have seen on the NHTSA. Com recalls list that the Cadillac Deville 2001-2005 one of the cars listed with the ignition switch problem and for the last two months I have had to bump the key and cylinder to get the key to move out of the lock to start position and there are times when I have to bump it aggressively to get it to move more than once the complaint/question that I have is the 2001 Cadillac Deville on the recall or not if so what should I do to get gm to fix my problem they informed me it would be an out of pocket expense to have it fixed I'm on disabiltiy and cannot afford to have it repaired on my own.

3 Ignition Switch problem

Failure Date: 02/14/2014

Car keeps stalling out (at light, while driving, etc) with the cause apparently attributed to a faulty ignition switch. I had the ignition switch replaced (for a charge of $496) at midway Cadillac in pokomoke MD (after having car towed there on Feb 14, 2014, because at that time, had difficulty even getting the key in the ignition switch). The problem I was having with it stalling out persists, even after the new ignition switch. Writing because the ignition-switch-related problems I am having appear to be the same or similar to other gm cars which are currently being recalled due to ignition switch problems. Please include the Cadillac Deville 2001 into your investigation regarding faulty ignition switches of gm-made cars.
