WHILE DRIVING IN ICY CONDITIONS, I MOMENTARILY LOST TRACTION. THE POWER TO THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY SHUT OFF, CAUSING ME TO LOSE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. MY CAR SPUN ABOUT THREE TIMES, AND I FINALLY CAME TO A STOP FACING TRAFFIC. THANKFULLY, THE ROAD WAS EMPTY, SO I WAS NOT INJURED. I AM ESPECIALLY WORRIED BECAUSE MY CAR IS PART OF GMS RECALL, BUT IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR A NEW IGNITION CYLINDER. GM CLAIMS THAT A NEW KEY WILL FIX MY PROBLEM, BUT THERE WAS NOTHING ON MY KEY AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT, SO I KNOW THIS IS A LIE. GM IS CONTINUING TO ENDANGER THE LIVES OF ITS CUSTOMERS BY NOT FULLY ADDRESSING THIS DEFECT. *TR
