Consumer Description

THE FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED AS I WAS IN LINE BEHIND A CAR AT A STOP SIGN, THE VEHICLE JUST CUT OFF AND SMOKE STARTED COMING FROM THE STEERING WHEEL. I TRIED TO START IT UP AGAIN BUT IT WOULDN'T START AND WAS STUCK IN DRIVE. IT WAS TOWED AND IDENTIFIED AS THE IGNITION SWITCH BURNED. THIS WAS BACK IN 2011. SINCE THEN, I HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH FOUR TIMES. THE VEHICLE JUST STALLS AND CUTS OUT WHENEVER WHEREVER WHICH IS DANGEROUS. I JUST REPLACED THIS IGNITION SWITCH LAST YEAR AS THE VEHICLE CUT OFF IN THE LOADING ZONE OF MY JOB AND WOULD NOT START RESULTING IN IT HAVING TO BE TOWED. IT'S 2015 AND THE SAME ISSUE IS HAPPENING AGAIN SO THIS HAS TO BE A RECALL OR DEFECT ON THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE IF NOT OTHERS.
