Consumer Description

WHEN I REMOVED THE KEYS FROM MY CAR IT KEPT RUNNING. THEY KEYS HAVE ONLY FALLEN OUT TWICE, BUT I HAVE SINCE REMOVED ALL THE EXTRAS FROM THE KEY FOB. BUT THE CAR SHOULD NOT CONTINUE TO RUN AFTER IT HAS BEEN PLACED IN PARK AND THE KEY REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION. I KNOW IT IS AN OLDER CAR AND CURRENTLY HAS 135,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE HAD DILIGENT MAINTENANCE PERFORMED ON IT SINCE I PURCHASED IT NEW IN 2002. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED WHEN IT HAD 45,000 MILES ON IT AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY GM, BUT I WAS ADVISED IT WAS A COSTLY EXPENSE FOR ME. GM SHOULD REPLACE THE IGNITION AT THEIR COST. *TR
