Consumer Description

THE KEY IS STUCK IN THE IGNITION. I AM UNABLE TO TAKE IT OUT EVEN WHEN ALL GEARS HAVE BEEN SWITCHED TO PARK. THE WERE NO EVENTS THAT GAVE ME WARNING ANY THING WAS WRONG WITH THE IGNITION. AT THIS POINT THIS IS THE 3RD PONTIAC GRAND PRIX RANGING IN YEARS 2001-2003 THAT I HAVE KNOWN THIS TO HAPPEN TO. THE KEY IS STILL STUCK IN THERE. PRICE QUOTES I HAVE GOT RANGE FROM $1,000.00- $2,000.00 DEPENDING ON IF THEY HAVE TO RESET THE AIRBAG. *NM
