On 6 june, 2013 while driving on m59 in michigan and applying the brakes, my knee made contact with the remote fob, causing the ignition key to move from the "on" position to "accessory" mode. The engine stopped running and I had to steer and brake the vehicle without power assist to the shoulder of the road. I put the vehicle in park and restarted without incident. The same situation occurred in january 2014 while driving on I-75 to florida. In both cases I informed my dealer (lafontaine cadillac in highland, michigan). The response was that they had not received any similar complaints and they could do nothing about it. I informed gm of the issue and they arranged to have the vehicle examined today, 1 april, 2014. I just received a call from the dealership informing me that the ignition switch met specifications. Whether or not it did (and to which specification) is academic. This is a safety issue! While I was able to manhandle the steering and braking, I doubt that my wife would be able to.
Sporadically, a "service air bag" warning comes on when engine is running. Also, in a few instances, the airbag readiness light has stayed on after completion of the brief system check which occurs when the engine is started. The dealers service department reviewed the matter and found that the history code for the passenger seat air bag "cleared codes", indicating that air bag is in working order. It recommended that if the service warning and readiness light were on frequently, the passenger seat air bag should be replaced at a cost of $912. I do not know why the dealer focused only on that one air bag. This issue sounds like the problem for which gm recently recalled certain sport utility vehicles for years including 2010, our model year. I believe it should be determined whether that recall should be extended to cover additional vehicles, including ours. Updated 04/08/14
