I am having issues with my engine unintentionally turning off because of my ignition key and I sent it to the shop for recall repair but they said they didn’t have the part and couldn’t find it because it’s not available.
When I attempt to turn off my vehicle, the key will not rotate to the off position. . Therefore, the key is stuck in the ignition and the car is still on, draining the battery. I took the car to a dealership in 2013 and told nothing was wrong with it but they charged me $165. 00 to put in a new ignition. The problem was intermittent until December 2014 and now the key is permanently stuck in the ignition and if I want to drive my car, I have to charge the battery every time I drive it. Gm just recalled the cobalt and hhr for the same issue. Why not expand the recall to include all gm products with this issue.
When we put the vehicle in park to exit it, the key gets stuck. As a result we have to hit the gear shift a couple of times to remove key. Doesn't happen each time but does happen often.
