The key will not come out of ignition once car is in park. In the event of an emergency, driver no longer has access to keys, driver is unable to leave car, battery drains (electric issues are already an issue that GMC will not address) and in the event driver is inexperienced at mechanics- this could lead to multifactor injuries. Issue has been reported in other make/models for YEARS, GMC refuses to address issue. In order to bypass this issue, owners must take apart steering column, release the Anti-Theft wire that enters the seliniod. Dealerships charge hundreds of dollars, sometimes never addressing the issue, to correct this problem. This key drains the electrical system, which will essentially cause complete failure to the car or a fire- which are happening more and more. A parasitic battery drain occurs due to this issue, resulting in consumers attaching trickle charging units (recommended by dealers). Instead of correcting the anti-theft wiring issues along with the switch blade key fob, a single key was issued along with the defective key fob and dealerships are asking owners to replace their "shifting units" to correct the issue of the key not coming out of the ignition. This is a safety issue that will lead to death; a car fire, a home emergency, a mechanical necessity require immediate need for keys, an internal combustion, a car parked in neutral or a car left running to avoid the hassle of not getting the keys out of the ignition.

Component unknown, available for inspection. I have not had the vehicle inspected by anyone. No warning lamps, messages prior to situation. This started happening a year after purchasing in 2017. Problem: After driving the vehicle, arriving at the destination, putting the car in park, turning the ignition off, the key will not turn all the way left so the key can be removed. The key gets stuck at that point. I try wiggling the key, push the key inward and left and right toward the steering column, apply the brake turn the key to the right 2x without actually turning the engine on then take the car out of park then put it back in park. Some times it works with one try but on average I do this about 3-5 times and then the key releases.

I WENT TO START MY CAR ONE DAY, AND USE THE AIR CONDITIONING (A/C). THE A/C WAS BLOWING WARM AIR, SO I TRIED MY HEATER TO SEE IF IT WORKED OKAY, AND THE HEATER WAS ALSO BLOWING WARM AIR AND WOULD NOT GET HOT. NO MATTER WHICH SETTING I TURNED MY VEHICLE ON, THE A/C WAS BLOWING WARM AIR AND THE HEATER WAS BLOWING WARM AIR. I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO A CHEVY DEALERSHIP, AND THEY SAID MY TEMP DOOR BROKE INTO THE ACTUATOR. THIS REPAIR ENTAILS RIPPING APART THE ENTIRE DASH, INCLUDING STEERING WHEEL, AIR BAGS, ECT. AND REMOVING THE WINDSHIELD! THE TOTAL FOR THIS COST ME $1,600 FOR A $30 PART! DOING RESEARCH, IT APPEARS THAT OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM WITH THEIR FIFTH GEN CAMARO'S; THE TEMP DOOR BREAKS OFF AT THE CORNER WHICH MAKES IT SO THE DOOR IS NOT OPENING AND CLOSING. I CALLED GM CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DO ANYTHING FOR ME. THEY SAID THEY WOULD OPEN UP AN INVESTIGATION TO SEE IF IT NEEDED TO BE A RECALL. HOWEVER, FROM ALL THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE HAD THIS SAME EXACT PROBLEM, IT SHOULD BE A RECALL! *TR

15V666000 · Air Bags:side/window

Oct 16, 2015

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2015 Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac XTS, Chevrolet Camaro, Equinox, Malibu, and GMC Terrain vehicles. The affected vehicles have front seat-mounted side impact air bags whose inflator may rupture upon its deployment.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of one or both of the side impact air bags, the air bag's inflator may rupture and the air bag may not properly inflate. The rupture could cause metal fragments to strike the vehicle occupants, potentially resulting in serious injury or death. Additionally, if the air bag does not properly inflate, the driver or passenger is at an increased risk of injury.

Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the side impact air bag modules, free of charge. The recall began on October 19, 2015. Owners may contact Buick customer service at 1-800-521-7300, Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006, or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is 01320.
