Steering problem

Ignition switches inadvertently turn from "run" to "accessory" position while car is driven and I have to restart the car to keep going. I woke up to read in the newspaper today (2/28/2014) that there is a recall on the gm faulted ignition deaths and the same exact problem described is in my car and still esists in this vehicle. I love this car but it scares me. I told the local new car dealership on this and they said it would cost about $2,000. 00 to fix it and I should wait till it gets worse befor fixing it. Please advise on any help I can get before it is too late. I believe you are the right agency to help me on this I will gladly surrender this car for your inspection. . Thank you. Cc:my attorney.
