Consumer Description

THERE WAS A RECALL OF THE KEY AND "FOB" FOR 2010-2014 CHEVY CAMAROS BECAUSE THE KEY COULD BE BUMPED BY SOMEONE'S KNEE OR SOME SIMILAR ISSUE. THE KEY OF MY 2011 BUICK REGAL BROKE, AND I BELIEVE IT HAS THE SAME CONSTRUCTION AS THE CAMARO. BY BROKE I MEAN THAT THE METAL PART THE FLIPS THE KEY IN AND OUT THE FOB (WHEN YOU PRESS A BUTTON) ACTUALLY BROKE, LUCKILY WHILE MY WIFE WAS TURNING OFF THE IGNITION. I THEREFORE SUSPECT THAT SINCE THE CAMARO AND BUICK ARE BUILT BY GM AND PROBABLY SHARE THE SAME KEY/FOB DESIGN, I'M EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE DRIVERS OF THE RECALLED CAMAROS, AND THE KEY/FOB OF THE 2011 BUICK REGALS SHOULD ALSO BE RECALLED.
