I took the car to a chevy dealer for the ignition switch recall dated July 3 2014. I told them about problems with the ignition switch such as the key can be pulled out when car is running and sometimes the starter stays on with engine running also problems turning the key. I waited while they did the recall service. When they were done they told me they put a plastic cover on the key. I started the car and found the problems were still there. I told them the recall was for a ignition switch not ignition key and their fix did nothing to fix the problem. They told me this fix is all they can do. A few weeks later,I could not get the car to shut off. I had to force the ignition off using a screwdriver and I had to buy a new ignition switch and install it myself however I will have to go to a locksmith so he could make the new key work on my door. 150. 00 foa a switch. Still have to pay a locksmith. I want my family to be safe in my car. I don't think g m feels the same.
