Consumer Description

DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEED MY CAR TURNED OFF BRIEFLY LOCKING THE STEERING WHEEL. THE CAR STARTED AGAIN AND WE WHERE ABLE TO PULL OVER SAFELY. I CHECKED AND EVALUATED THE CAR AND WE CONTINUED ON. 35 MILES LATER IT DID THE SAME THING. WHEN WE STOPPED THIS TIME I REMOVED THE IGNITION KEY FROM THE KEY RING AND WE TRAVELED 500 MILES TO HOME. I HAD THE IGNITION EVALUATED AT VICTORY LAYNE CHEVY AND THEY DETERMINED THE IGNITION WAS WORN AND REPLACED IT BUT WOULD NOT COVER IT UNDER THE ACTIVE GM IGNITION RECALL. IT SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE SATURNS.
