NHTSA Complaint #10593971 — 2006 SATURN ION

I WAS DRIVING THE 2006 SATURN ION IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD. I REACHED THE INTERSECTION AT THE END OF MY STREET AND CAME TO A STOP/YIELD. AS I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE TO SHIFT TO THE GAS AND BEGAN STEERING TO TURN LEFT, THE ENGINE SUDDENLY TURNED OFF. THE BATTERY LIGHT ON THE DASH APPEARED. I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURN OFF THE VEHICLE, AND RESTART IT. I RETURNED HOME INSTEAD OF CONTINUING MY TRIP. MY VEHICLE IS AFFECTED BY THE RECALL WITH CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 14V-047. I HAD REMOVED ALL ADDITIONAL KEYS FROM MY KEYRING AS RECOMMENDED IN THE THREE RECALL LETTERS I RECEIVED, BUT I STILL BELIEVE THAT THIS ISSUE WAS RELATED TO THE ISSUE THE IGNITION SWITCH. I HAVE CHOSEN TO FILE THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE ONE OF THE LETTERS I RECEIVED FROM [XXX]OF GM ASSERTED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SAFE TO DRIVE AS LONG AS THERE WERE NO ADDITIONAL KEYS ON THE KEYRING.
