Here's more to add with the ongoing recalls.

GM to Replace Lock Cylinder During Ignition Switch Recall

 

Wonder how long it will take GM to get the parts out for this? Honestly, I don't the dealer touching my car

 

I don't want a new key.

 

Cars been at the dealer for almost 2 weeks now. I just want to pick it back up and make an appointment. Who knows how long it'll be until they get te parts.

 

Will they be replacing the door lock too or am I going to have to carry two keys around? I feel like they would but I haven't found anything about it.

 

Damn, I didn't think about that. My fob is already busted and don't really want to pay to have one programmed.

 

Lol so the people that have had this recall done now have to come back to get the lock cylinder too!?!?!

 

That's what I'm worried about.

 

I'm glad they had to do this. I need to get a new key anyway. The only key I have is so worn out that when I put it in one way it works fine, turn it 180° and insert it again and you have to wiggle it to get past lock and I haven't had any spares made because they use the old key to make a new one....it's much too worn out.

 

^They can use your VIN to cut keys.

 

That is true, but I can buy a pass key online for little of nothing compared to what the dealership wants. When I got my key fob programmed they tried to sell me another key, they wanted 75 for the key and 25 to program it to the car. I laughed out the door.

 

Hmmm I wonder what this means for my aftermarket remote start? Don't trust gm people to touch it but I think there's a key buried in the system somewhere to get past the gm anti theft

 

Has anyone actually had it done here? Last I heard GM is still waiting on parts. The is my last GM vehicle and I'm glad to be getting rid of it

 

I had a new ignition put in mine a year and a half ago and I didn't need another key. I still have the original one.
