| Description of the problem | Put my car into park and my key refused to come out of the ignition. I tried numerous times to put my car in park/drive to see if the ignition will unlock, but it is not communicating that it is in park (steering wheel will not lock, i also can't turn the key backwards and put into auxiliary mode. It wouldn't be a bad thing if i didn't live in the city. Besides the fact that the stupid drivers side door latch is busted too which is a security issue along with a safety issue. Can't a consumer rely on a car manufacture to issue parts that don't break or malfunction... I see online that lots and lots and lots of people have this issue... As this is a major concern, why is there no recall? Why should i have to pay out of pocket to get this fixed when it is a known issue? Maybe its time to buy a chevy. |
