I HAVE JUST GOT A 1996 CHEVY CAVALIER AND THE ANTI THEFT LIGHT CAME ON AND SHUT DOWN GOING DOWN THE HWY 50 MILES PER HOUR NO BRAKES OR STEERING . THE IGNITION SWITCK IT HAS A CODE SILINDER NOW IT WANT RUN OR NUTHING IT TURNS OVER BUT WANT START. *TR

THE CONSUMER TURNED ON THE ENGINE AND NOTICED SMOKE COMING THROUGH THE IGNITION SWITCH, TWO MINUTES LATER, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS ON FIRE. DEALER NOTIFIED. CONSUMER INDICATED THERE WAS A NHTSA RECALL ON THIS ISSUE. *AK *JB

HAVING PROBLEMS WITH STALLING, PLACED OTHER COMPLAINTS RECENTLY. STEERING LOCKING UP AND FIXED MORE PART IN VECHILE, NOW MIGHT BE RELATING TO THE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL, WHICH MY MECHANIC HAS FOUND WAS INPROPERLLY PLACED IN CAR. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND SINCE IT HAS BEEN OVER 1 YEAR AND 12,000 MILES, THEY WILL CHARGE ME A LABOR FEE AND ALSO THE PART FEE. COULD THIS BECOME ANY WORSE GM??????

I AM WONDERING IF THE PROPER RECALL WORK WAS DONE TO MY VEHICLE AT KOON'S CHEVROLET. I ASKED WHAT WAS REQUIRED FOR THE CAMPAIGN # 02V070000 (THE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL) THE MECHANIC THAT EXPLAINED IT TO ME DID NOT USE THE WORDS RELAY KIT. HE DESCRIBED A CABLE HARNESS TO HOLD WIRES BACK. *NLM
