Key gets stuck in the ignition. Battery is not dead. If the key is turned fast you may remove it from the tumbler but if it is turn towards the off position slowly the locking mechanism returns to the retracted stage and won't allow the key to be removed. I can manually remove the key by pulling the lock mechanism forward while turning the key to the off position.

4 Battery Dead problem

Failure Date: 10/20/2016

The car turns off while I am driving, no matter where I have had it turn off on the expressway and street while in drive and at times it the rpm idles while im at the stip like and parked. I have contacted chevy but they didn't want to honor the powertrain warranty and I was not to told not to come back to ron craft chevy. So I took it to miller auto body and repair, here in houston, they recommend that I replace the engine cover I did out of my own pocket even though its was supposed to be honored at the chevy dealership under powertrain. I still continue to drive the car but it still losses power and turns off while im driving. Last night the battery died, I replaced it with a new today but the car still shuts down and stops while I'm driving. I don't know what to do and why this is happening and why chevy isn't honoring the powertrain warranty on the faulty engine components, the stablility track stays and the check engine lights stays on and a traction lights stays on. I have done regular maintenance on this car every since I bought it, every maintenance inspections were all done by chevy, I just don't under stand why they play dumb when honoring my powertrain warranty.

My cars power steering went out while I was driving for short bursts. I took it to the dealership and they said that the power cables to the battery went bad but that it isn't covered under warranty. This car is only two years old. This caused me to have a small accident because the power steering went out while I was driving and attempting to make a turn.

6 Battery Dead problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2016

The aux signal come on over the radio I can't listen to the radio and every now and again the onstar lady comes on without anyone pushing a button I turned off the blue tooth as well. Also every 2-3 months my car battery dies without cause every light is off this occurs when the radio starts acting out more frequently this has happened since I bought the car and the dealer couldn't figure it out either so I had to buy a battery charger because I never know when my battery will die. I even changed the battery this year n still it dies without cause.

7 Battery Dead problem

Failure Date: 12/04/2014

Can't remove key when car is in park. Two different times now. Also car with 900 miles on it failed to start and key was stuck this time also. Tow truck driver called, he also could not remove key. Checked car for anything left on, found nothing. Jumped car, it started, he moved the shifter lever roughly several times, key came out. Told us not to turn car off and take it to dealership. Driver thought battery was bad also. Took car in. They kept car three days. Were told twice by service man battery had a bad cell. When called to pick up car, service told us we must have left something on. That nothing was wrong. And we must not have shifter in park. Left dealership, no battery replaced, no real answer to why key did't come out. Did not even put car on a charger to get battery back to 100%.
