From what I have read, the Lucerne switch problem is a little different from the small cars that were recalled earlier. Not sure what, however I have no concerns with my 06. Nothing but the fob has ever hung from it (bought it new) ....and from what I have read...GM doesn't replace the switch in the Lucerne like they did in the other recall. In the Lucerne they only take your key and fill the hole so nothing else can be attached to the key except the fob. They don't fix the ignition switch, that just make it impossible to hang anything else from the key. In other words, if you have not killed yourself in your Lucerne by now, you won't be able to hang anything else off the key, have an accident, and then blame it on GM. Anyway, that is what I have read on the Internet...it might be all hooey, but again, I am not concerned. Haven't got my recall yet, and wouldn't bother to go to the dealer anyway, but I would be interested to know what the dealer actually does.
My car is currently at the dealership being fixed for something not related to the recall. They tell me it's one of the recalled vehicles for the faulty ignition switch but they can't fix it until the end of October! They're telling me to drive using only the car key, nothing hanging from it. Anyone else have to risk their lives waiting on General Motors to fix their F-up that they've been trying to hide? Is this even legal?
