Description of the problem | Ignition key cannot be removed and does not rotate to the "off" position when parking the vehicle. You have to move the vehicle and the steering wheel multiple times to get the key to release. Multiple gm cars have experienced this problem. Gm document pit5233f calls this a normal characteristic on 11 models for multiple years. My vehicle has 32000 miles on it and the dealership replaced the shifter assembly. I contacted the dealer and gm customer service about this common problem that seems to need a recall. |
