I HAD BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE CAR STARTING PROPERLY AND THE KEY GETTING STUCK IN THE IGNITION. THE DEALER COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THEN ONE EVENING, I DROVE TO A STORE AND TURNED MY CAR OFF. CAME BACK AND IT WOULDN'T START. CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND THEY THOUGH IT WAS THE BATTERY, BUT IT WASN'T. HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT HAD A BAD STARTER. I HAD TO BY A NEW STARTER. *TR

BOUGHT VEHICLE USED IN 2012 ( JUNE 26) AND 1-2 MONTHS LATER HAD TO REPLACE IGNITION SWITCH AS KEY WOULD NOT TURN OVER. STILL HAVE ISSUES WITH IGNITION SWITCH NOT TURNING OVER INTERMITTENTLY SO WE LEAVE KEY IN IGNITION AND LOCK WITH THE REMOTE CONTROLLER. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 CHEVY EQUINOX WHICH I PURCHASED WITH 80 MILES ON IT. AFTER ABOUT 20 MONTHS I WAS UNABLE TO TURN TO THE IN THE IGNITION. I HAD TO FORCE IT AND PLAY WITH THE STEERING WHEEL FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES FOR IT TO TURN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE CYLINDER. ABOUT 2 MONTHS LATER IS DID IT AGAIN. IT IS CURRENTLY BACK AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE SAME ISSUE. THE KEY WILL JUST NOT TURN AT ALL, AS IF IT WAS THE WRONG KEY FOR THE CAR. *TR
