ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I HAVE A 2007 SATURN ION 3. BEFORE THE IGNITION RECALL MY IGNITION STOPPED WORKING (THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN OFF) AND I HAD THE IGNITION REPLACED BY GM. ONCE THE RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED, GM REIMBURSED ME FOR THE REPAIR. NOW, MY IGNITION IS NOT TURNING OFF EASILY ~5% OF THE TIME (TRYING TO PARK ON MY RELATIVELY FLAT DRIVEWAY). I NEED TO GET IT REPAIRED; IS A SECOND IGNITION COVERED BY THE RECALL?

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
I NEED TO KNOW WHY YOUR SYSTEM SHOWS NO RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE USING THE VIN NUMBER, BUT HAS (7) RECALLS IF I USE YEAR/MAKE/MODEL, THE SYSTEM SHOULD ALLOW ME TO RUN THE VIN, SEE ALL RECALLS, AND EVEN REPORT WITH PROOF IF THE RECALL IS COMPLETE, LIKE A CHECK LIST. YOUR SYSTEM IS USELESS IF THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT AGREEING TO THE RECALLS UNDER THE YEAR/MAKE/MODEL AND ASSIGNING THE RECALLS TO THE VIN TO GRANT APPROVAL TO DEALERS TO REPAIR, A DEALER WILL NOT COMPLETE A GM RECALL UNLESS GM APPROVES OF THE RECALL FOR A PARTICULAR VIN. I HAVE ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH MY VEHICLE THAT FALLS IN THE CATEGORY OF THE RECALLS, BUT I'M NOT PAYING OUT OF POCKET FOR THESE REPAIRS, WHEN THEY ARE KNOWN SAFETY ISSUES.
