My car has shut off several times on its own even on highway 81 during peak traffic time I think this car should have been added to the ignition switch recall I mean even shutting off once it should be on the list I reported this awhile back because it shut off and they said it wasn't on the recall list. It happened like 6 times already lucky my son knew what to do and didn't have a accident as of yet thanks god always happens while he is driving and loses all power when it shut off something needs to be done about this ignition switch on Saturn and I don't think I should be the one to buy a new switch when its a gm problem this last time on 10/27 was during peak traffic time on highway 81.
