| After putting the vehicle in park, the key will only turn halfway. this results in the key being stuck in the iginition. this occurs intermittenly, but tends to get worse the more frequently the vehicle is driven. only way i have been able to remove the key is to turn the vehicle back on and rotate thru the gears. sometimes it takes 5 or 6 tries. also the side view mirrors will not operate all the time either and according to the dealer, the mirror and the the key iginition run thru the same wire harness in the shifter mechanism. i have taken the vehicle to the dealership 2 seperate times. the first time they could not mimick the situation, but the second time it happened 5 times after 3 days of testing. this condition appears to have happened to numerous customers based on info i have read on the internet. i am working with gm to get this resolved but i believe a recall should be at least investigated since my vehicle is only 2.5 years old and others owners have had a similar condtion occur. to correct the problem the dealer is replacing the the floor shifter and the wire harness. not sure if this will work but hope so. | |||
