I had to take the car in for the ignition key recall and I told the dealership to look at it for this problem ,when I went to pickup the car the dealership told me they ran a diagnostic system test and found nothing ,I showed the tech the post on this site id number10638610 ,as that post has the same problem ,and it stated at the end of the post that there was 2 recalls for that VIN number car pertaining to what lead/caused that accident ,to show the tech that gm has a fix for it on recall and the tech stated that was only for that VIN number on recall and that I would have to notify gm corperate on this issue . So I notified gm corperate through email on this matter and now waiting response ,this is an unintended acceleration problem.
