Pulling out of the dealership located on a busy street and the transmission wouldn't engage. It was just surging and I almost caused a major accident. Reading all of the complaints regarding this same problem really disturbs me. My son in law works for gm. I only own chevys but to think that you would allow this obvious problem to go on putting many peoples lives at risk makes me rethink my decision. I demand that this be investigated before someone gets killed. *tr updated 2/10/2016

Follow-up on complaint# 10650094. I have researched this problem,and tried to get assistance from gm with no results other that the run-around. I have explained that the recall of this vehicle and repair that is suggested is not the issue. The ignition is a 2 part switch and the mechanical part of the switch is only part of the problem. The issue in my case is that the electrical part of the switch is what controls the power, brakes, airbag, and all other functions. You need to look at the entire switch assembly. The electrical part is what failed.
