I HAVEN'T BEEN PHYSICALLY HURT BECAUSE OF THIS IGNITION SWITCH RE-CALL BUT IT HAS MADE ME DISPLACED FOR DAYS ON END BECAUSE THE CAR WOULDN'T START. I'VE MISSED WORK ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION AND THEN I'M BEING TOLD BY GM THAT THE PART ISN'T BUILT, THERE ISN'T ENOUGH TO GO AROUND, IT'S LIKE WHAT ARE WE AS GM OWNERS SUPPOSE TO DO UNTIL THE PART AND THEN WAIT TO SEE FOR THE CHEVY HOUSE TO CALL TO REPLACE THE PART. WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO BE DISPLACED AND DISHEVELED BUT I WON'T BE COMPENSATED UNLESS I'M HURT? THIS MAKES NO SENSE I DIDN'T ASK FOR MY CAR TO HAVE ISSUES OF THIS SORT BUT YET I'M MISSING TIME OFF OF WORK BECAUSE THE WORK WON'T CRANK. WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT MY ISSUE EVEN THOUGH I'M NOT PHYSICALLY HURT? *TR
