Consumer Description

ON OR AROUND DECEMBER 19, 2014, I CONTACTED GM, BY TELEPHONE, CONCERNING RECALL 14350 FOR OUR 2002 CHEVROLET MALIBU. THIS CALL WAS FOLLOWING A LETTER I HAD SENT, DATED DECEMBER 8, 2014. I FEEL THIS RECALL WAS RELATED TO AN IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEM WE HAD BACK IN JUNE 2013. IN JUNE 2013 I TOOK THIS VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THE CAR ENGINE SHUT OFF WILL DRIVING. I WAS TOLD THE IGNITION SWITCH HAD TO BE REPLACED. THIS REPAIR COST $479.19. AFTER RECEIVING THIS RECALL NOTICE, I REQUESTED THAT THIS MONEY BE REFUNDED AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE UNRELATED AND I COULD NOT BE REIMBURSED. I FEEL STRONGLY THAT I AM OWED THE REFUND OF MY MONEY PAID TO THE DEALERSHIP. THANK YOU. *TR
