Wouldn't any GM dealer have replaced it for FREE. Recently had that and the steering motor replaced.

If your ignition was never replaced the recall covers free towing. Gm called a tow company and paid for everything to get my car to the dealer. Even if the car runs, if you dont feel safe driving it they will tow it for free.
