ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
PULLED INTO THE GAS STATION TO PUMP GAS, AFTER PUMPING GAS, THE CAR WOULD NOT START. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A MECHANIC WHO LOOKED AT THE VEHICLE AND DETERMINED THE FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH IS CAUSE OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE. I CAN NOT GET THE OTHER ISSUES CORRECTED UNLESS GM FIXES THE FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH FOR RECALL #14299. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS IN THE AREA, AND NONE OF THEM HAVE THE PART NEEDED TO FIX MY CAR. I PURCHASED THIS CAR IN 2010, AND HAVE HAD MANY PROBLEM WITH IT SINCE 2011. THE FUEL PUMP WAS CHANGED 2 TIMES AND THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN REPLACED 1 TIME. I ENCOURAGE THE NHTSA TO LOOK INTO THE ENTIRE VEHICLE AND NOT JUST THE FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH. GM HAS FAILED THE CONSUMER IN MANY WAYS, AND I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH MY GM CAR BUYING EXPERIENCE. I'M A SINGLE PARENT AND NEED MY VEHICLE TO RUN AND RUN SAFELY. *TR
