Anti theft system keeps on coming on and will not let your car start !!! They even replaced the key holes with fillers in it. You have to turn the key and wait 15 to 20 min. Before it will start or sometime it will not work!!!! How do you explain that and that still does not fix the ignition switch it is a big problem because now the car will not start I have called gm before and they say there is no recall. Well if you look at this web site to see all the complaints in these cars for the ignition problems that should be fixed and they will not do anything about it !!!!! I guess they will have to wait for someone to gets killed again to do something about !!! They already had a big law suite I guess they will have to deal with another one if this keeps on happening when people drive and it just conks out on us and there is a bunch of accidents !!!! Gm you really need to listen to your customers !!!!! Then you guys want us to buy more cars well if we can not trust you to fix something when there is more then enough complaints about this car why would we go back to trust you again !!!! This is very unsafe gm especially if you will not fix it !!! Also my car has under 100,000 miles on it !!! This has been doing it for the past 3 years

The prescribed/proposed fix by gm over the faulty ignition switches is the most lame excuse for a fix I have ever heard of. Just want to go on the record saying this.

Ignition key can be removed/falls out when vehicle is being driven. We have had six incidents where we parked car and removed key and then car started rolling. In two incidents an open door of the rolling car caught person knocking them down, one incident just missed rolling over foot. In each case found that car was not in park with key removed. Have also had multiple incidents where key was removed but ignition remained on draining the cars battery each time. Very hard to get key lock into "off" position.

For two years now my doors will lock automatically when I turn the car of and get out. Also the horn will blow for no reason like I have locked the doors. I can't leave my keys in the car because it has locked with keys in the ignition. Recently when I go to start the car I have to jiggle the key to be able to turn it to start. I thought maybe it was the key but I have had new ones made.
