NHTSA Complaint #10568922 — 2004 CHEVROLET COLORADO

WITH THE REVELATION OF THE GM IGNITION RECALL PROBLEM, THERE ARE MUCH MORE IGNITION PROBLEMS THAT WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE PROBLEM IS IN THE IGNITION CYLINDER AND ALIGNMENT WITH THE PASSLOCK OR PASSKEY SENSOR. MY PROBLEM STARTED SHORTLY AFTER THE VEHICLE WENT OUT OF WARRANTY AND I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT IT WAS A $1000.00 REPAIR. I CAN NOT AFFORD $1000. SO I HAVE LIVED WITH IT. BECAUSE OF THE MISALIGNMENT IT CAUSES THE IGNITION TO THINK THAT THE VEHICLE IS STOLEN AND DISABLES THE FUEL INJECTORS, IT HAS LEFT ME STRANDED QUITE A FEW TIMES ALONG THE ROAD WAITING FOR THE COMPUTER TO MANUALLY RESET AFTER 10 MINUTES, IT HAS ALSO COST ME SEVERAL TOWING BILLS UNTIL I DID AN INTERNET SEARCH AND FOUND OUT HOW WIDESPREAD THIS ISSUE IS. IF THE MISALIGNMENT IS CAUSING THIS TO HAPPEN WHAT WILL IT AFFECT AS THE PROBLEM WORSENS. THIS ISSUE IS NOT COVERED BY THE CURRENT RECALL BUT DESERVES INVESTIGATING .
