Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I drove up to valle parking, stopped to insert valle parking key. Ignition frozen-could not insert key. Steering wheel locked. Could not contact onstar. Everything froze? Called onstar with my cell phone? They sent a wrecker to tow car to Cadillac dealer(approximately 25 miles away). Cadillac advised ignition lock cylinder jammed and will not rotate . Cadillac dealer coded and installed new ignition lock cylinder , for which I paid $632.86. Should this be included in ignition recall ? Shouldn't I be refunded the $632.86 I paid for these repairs?”
