Consumer Description

MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN SHE WAS NOT ABLE TO STEER THE CAR. THE CAR ENTERED THE DITCH AND ROLLED. MY DAUGHTER WAS BANGED AND BRUISED UP BUT DID NOT REQUIRE GOING TO THE HOSPITAL. I THEN RECEIVE A RECALL NOTICE THAT THERE IS A FAULT IN THE IGNITION SYSTEM AND TO REMOVE ALL ITEMS FROM THE KEY RING. ALSO, THAT GM WAS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND DID NOTHING ABOUT IT. PRAISE THE LORD THAT MY DAUGHTER WAS NOT KILLED OR SERIOUSLY HURT BUT I AM OUT $6700 FOR THE CAR. I DID NOT HAVE FULL COVERAGE ON THE VEHICLE. I HAD LIABILITY AND COMPREHENSIVE BUT NOT COLLISION. *TR
