NHTSA recall 15V640000
Electrical System · General Motors, LLC
Details
What's wrong: In the affected vehicles, the ignition lock actuator may bind, making turning the key difficult or causing the ignition to get stuck in the "start" position.
Why it matters: If stuck in the "start" position, the ignition may suddenly snap back into the "accessory" position, causing a loss of engine, steering, and braking power, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. If the vehicle is in a crash, the air bags may not deploy, increasing the risk of occupant injury.
The fix: Gm will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ignition lock housing, free of charge. The recall began on November 20, 2015.
