Consumer Description

MY 2002 CHEVY IMPALA HAS A RANDOM ISSUE WITH STARTING AND HAS LEFT ME STRANDED SEVERAL TIMES. ONE TIME THE CAR QUIT RUNNING WHILE DRIVING LEAVING ME WITH NO POWER STEERING OR BRAKES GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY! THEN WOULD NOT START AGAIN FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES. ON THE INTERNET I SEE WHERE THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF IGNITION SWITCH COMPLAINTS ON THIS AND SEVERAL OTHER GM MODELS. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A GM ISSUE THAT THEY HAVE FAILED TO ADDRESS. LEAVING SOMEONE STRANDED OR EVEN WORSE STALLING WHILE DRIVING IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I LIVE IN OHIO WHERE IT CAN EASILY GET BELOW ZERO IN THE WINTER IF MY CAR LEAVES ME STRANDED, IT COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. *TR
