Consumer Description
THE DATE AND MILEAGE I ENTERED ARE APPROXIMATE. FOR SEVERAL MONTHS, I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH WHEN THE KEY IS IN THE RUN POSITION. AT TIMES, I HAVE TURNED OFF THE IGNITION AND REMOVED THE KEY; AND THEN HAD DIFFICULTY INSERTING THE KEY THE NEXT TIME I WENT TO USE THE VEHICLE. THE KEY SLOT POSITION IS NOT IN THE OFF POSITION, BUT IN THE RUN OR ACCESSORY POSITION. THIS SEEMS LIKE IT COULD LEAD TO A PROBLEM IF THE KEY SHOULD COME OUT OF THE SWITCH WHEN I AM DRIVING. I ASSUME I WOULD BE SURPRISED, AND INSTINCTIVELY REACH TO PICK UP THE KEY. THIS COULD LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT WHILE I WAS DISTRACTED LOOKING FOR THE KEY. I BELIEVE THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE, AND GM SHOULD REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE IGNITION SWITCH. *TR
