General Motors ignition switch recall website (www.gmignitionupdate.com) has now been updated to include all 20 models affected be defect, Automotive News reports. The automaker launched the website in April and has been using it as a tool to communicate with owners of vehicles with defective ignition switches, which have been linked to 13 deaths.
The website now has information for the 15 million owners of the 20 different vehicles affected by the recall, a GM statement said. Models added to the list include the Chevrolet Malibu and Impala sedan and the Cadillac CTS, DTS, SRX and Deville. GM also said about 1.9 million of the 2.59 million owners of the initial vehicles recalled in February have so far received a letter in regards to bringing their vehicle in for repairs.
The automaker also said it mailed an additional 1 million letters to owners who had not responded to the recall by going to the dealer or ordering parts from the website and 875,000 more to those who ordered repair parts but haven’t brought the car in to be fixed. So far, the automaker says it has fixed 800,000 of the 2.59 million cars from the February recall.

I was advised to go to http://www.gmignitionupdate.com and no site exists as far as I see == I did about 20 sites but not the above one. ARE YOU PEOPLE trying to not fix my Malibu 2012????????
WHY DO YOU MAKE IT SO DIFFICULT to find your site ??????????????????????
ANYWAY, I received my letter and called my GM dealer and no parts available – the ones in stock are already called for =======- IN ONE DAY???????????????
Way to go GM why send out letters if dealers have about 10 units or maybe 20.
THIS IS PURE BULL SHIT …
Thanks for nothing. I am driving 850 miles this weekend and I hope I don’t lose any part of my CHEVY. THANX again for nothing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a 2004 Cadillac deville. 2012 I had to replace the ignition switch on my car, just befor you made the recall for the Cadillac deville (2004). The ignition switch collpapse.
The car had stall on me two time before it stop completely . I had to have it towed to the shop. It cost me a great deal of money to replace it. came close to having an accident on
both times.
I got the same problem with my 09 chevy malibu, the ignition switch came loose, driving on the express way and it came to a complete stop, i thought we were going to have an accident.
I have done lots of seaching on this problem to see if theres a recall but no luck here.
Has anyone had this fix by GM, please let me know ([email protected])
This is helpful information.
My car is included on the recall list and I do have problems with my ignition switch, but when I entered my VIN#, I got “No Results” on the GM site. I have just began researching the problem.
