NHTSA Complaint #10679292 — 2006 SATURN ION

YET ONE MORE IGNITION HAS FAILED. I HAD THE RECALL DONE ON THE OTHER TWO RECALLS. YET, LESS THAN A MONTH AFTER THE LAST REPLACEMENT THE KEY WOULD NOT COME OUT. I TRIED LOOKING FOR THE KEY RELEASE ON THE STEERING COLUMN THAT ON PRIOR RECALLS THEY SAID WAS THERE. IT IS NOT. I HAD TO PULL THE BATTERY CABLES AS BEFORE TO GET THE INTERIOR LIGHTS OFF. I CAME OUT TO THE CAR ABOUT AN HOUR LATER AND WAS ABLE TO REMOVE THE KEY. I SPOKE TO THE GM REP WHO SAID THEY WOULD REPLACE IT WITH ANOTHER ONE (THE SAME MODEL, ETC) AND I'D HAVE TO COME BACK INTO THE DEALERSHIP. I TOLD THEM NO, I HAD RECEIVED UNBELIEVABLE HIDEOUS SERVICE THERE SINCE BUYING THE CAR AND WITH THE OTHER RECALLS. WAS TOLD TO DRIVE THE HOUR AND A HALF TO THE NEXT NEAREST ONE. AGAIN DECLINED. I WAS TOLD THAT IF I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP I USE THEY WOULD NOT PAY THE LABOR. THIS IS IGNITION NUMBER FOUR NOW. I AM TAKING IT TO THE SHOP I USE TOMORROW AND WILL DO BATTLE WITH GM AFTERWARDS. *TR
