Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Key will not come out of ignition after putting into park. sticks at various times and for various lengths of time. the lights stay on which has drained the battery twice. have had three different local dealers check. they did things like grease it, make new keys and scratch their head. none of these have solved my problem. i purchased the car as a "program car" with 14967 miles on it. the problem started shortly after purchase in 1996. after 5 years of thinking i was alone with this annoying problem, i recently found six local owners with the same problem and now i see about ten other complaints on this web site. i did have the most recent recall done but the dealer said it did not have anything to do with this problem but didn't have any answers on how to fix it. i have sent e-mails to pontiac with no reply. i realize this may not fall into safety issues but it is a wide problem that needs looked into. with the ignition left in the on position, it may be a fire hazzard, not to mention hard on batteries. i am tot he point of seeking legal assistance to get this problem solved. this is the largest, most annoying problem i have had, other than this, i have liked the car. please, please help me fix this!*ak |
