Consumer Description

IN EARLY MAY MY 2009 PONTIAC G6 SHUT OFF UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE REVERSING IN A PARKING SPOT. I TESTED THE CAR IN DRIVE ALSO AND REALIZED THE IGNITION COULD BE SWITCHED OFF WHILE IN GEAR. I HAVE TRIED TO GET GM TO REPAIR THE FAULTY IGNITION BUT SINCE IT HAS NOT YET BEEN ADDED TO THEIR GROWING LIST OF RECALLS, THEY WONT EVEN LOOK AT IT WITHOUT LEAVING THE CAR FOR A $150 INSPECTION. THIS IS ABSURD SINCE THE PART SHOULD TAKE 30 MINUTES TO INSTALL AND COSTS THEM NEXT TO NOTHING. I'M SURE THERE ARE MANY OTHER VEHICLES NOT UNDER THE RECALL THAT ALSO HAVE THE ISSUE. I AM DISGUSTED WITH GM FOR CONTINUING TO NEGLECT RESPONSIBILITY FOR AN OBVIOUS PROBLEM! I'M NOT SURE WHAT ELSE TO DO AT THIS POINT BUT TO SEEK THE HELP OF AN ATTORNEY. *TR
