Consumer Description

ON 09/04/12 I BROUGHT MY CAR INTO THE DEALER BECAUSE I WAS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH. THE IGNITION SWITCH WOULD LOCK UP PREVENTING THE CAR FROM TURNING OVER. THE KEY WOULD ALSO GET STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND WOULD NOT RELEASE. I HAD THE PROBLEM REPAIRED, BUT WITH ALL OF THE RECALLS ON EVERY OTHER GM VEHICLE HAVING TO DO WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH, I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO SEE THE PONTIAC TORRENT 2006 RECALLED AS WELL. ALSO, THIS ISSUE HAPPENED PRIOR TO THE RECALL. SO I AM NOT 100% CONFIDENT THE IGNITION SWITCH THAT WAS REPLACED IN MY VEHICLE BY THE DEALER WAS A DEFECTIVE PART. *TR
