 My key is stuck in the ignition and will not turn back to the off position so i can get the key out. i have to disconnect my battery to keep the battery from draining completely when not in use and reconnect my battery when i need to drive my car, and i cannot lock my car because of this. i feel this is a safety issue because i could get injured while connecting or disconnecting my battery and i cannot secure my car. the passenger air bag indicator is on. it was not on when i purchased this used car but it came on at approximately 70,000 miles. my rear defroster barely works. the speedometer sticks at zero then starts working for a few tenths of a mile then goes back to zero again. i have to guess what speed i am going. the speedometer started malfunctioning at about 68,000 miles. chevrolet refuses to repair any of the above at their expense. stating there is no recall on this vehicle. i have seen numerous complaints about the key getting stuck in the ignition on many models of chevrolet vehicles on the internet. why isn't there a recall on these issues?

 Tl* the contact owns a 2010 chevrolet impala. when occupying the passenger front seat, the air bag warning light illuminates on the instrument control panel. the technicians at the dealer were not able to identify the cause of the failure. the manufacturer took a report. the manufacturer will send a district supervisor to the dealer to further investigate the failure. the failure mileage was 500. the current mileage was 2,500.
