Consumer Description

FAULTY IGNITION! NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED IN THE GM RECALL!!! I AM NOT CERTAIN ON THE DATES OF THE INCIDENTS OR THE MILEAGE - THAT IS ALL ON FILE AT MERIT CHEVROLET IN ST. PAUL, MN - I PLACED THIS INFORMATION IN THE FORM BECAUSE IT IS REQUIRED IN ORDER TO SUBMIT - I CAN RETRIEVE THE DATES OF SERVICE AND MILEAGE IF NEEDED OTHERWISE, THE REPAIRS ARE FILED!!! THE IGNITION SWITCH LOCKS UP - UNABLE TO TURN THE KEY TO START THE VEHICLE. TAKES GREAT MANIPULATION (JIGGLING) TO GET IT TO TURN. EVENTUALLY, COMPLETELY LOCKS AND MUST BE TOWED TO REPAIR. ONLY HAVE 1 CAR KEY AND 2 HOUSE KEYS ON THE RING. HAVE HAD NEW KEYS CUT. IGNITION STILL FAILS AND IT IS GETTING READY TO FAIL AGAIN! KEY HAS ALSO COME OUT OF THE IGNITION WHILE VEHICLE IS RUNNING - SAME ISSUE WITH GM IGNITION INVOLVED IN RECALLS. IGNITION HAS BEEN REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AT MINIMUM ....2 TIMES THROUGH MERIT CHEVROLET ON HWY 94 & CENTURY/120 IN ST PAUL MN. MAY HAVE BEEN A THIRD REPLACEMENT AT ANOTHER REPAIR SHOP AT OWNER'S COST - LOOKING FOR THE RECEIPT AND LOCATION FOR THAT. THE IGNITION IS GETTING READY TO FAIL AGAIN. THE 2005 SATURN VUE NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED IN THE CURRENT GM RECALL!!! *TR
