Went to a dealer to take care of my ignition system recall on

Offer to call GM corporate for them.

Well it was working before you took it to them right? Just tell them it's bullshit and that you either want your money back or that they are going to fix it.

If they continue to be shady, cut your losses and do the shit yourself. It's just an ignition switch.

By calling their bullshit. You have documents proving that work was performed, in the same area where stuff is now going wrong

It's definitely related. One of the techs probably left the clockspring or something unplugged or loose.

That's just it. They say that the area they worked in is on the opposite side of the wiring for the buttons, and that all they did was pull out the ignition switch and put in a new one, programmed 2 new keys and made sure they worked with all the locks. I'd talk back but the only argument I have is "it worked before and Now it doesn't". I'd fix that myself if I knew how, but I lack the knowledge to do so. Anyway, I'll try calling :) corporate like the first reply said and go from there...

god damn phone. i meant calling GM corporate. stupid auto correct.

GM techs are fucking useless OP. When I took my car for the switch replacement they broke a tab off of the bezel that fits around the ignition switch and now there is obvious panel gap. When I pointed it out when I picked it up they said it was already like that and that basically they weren't gonna do anything about it. My advice would be just to fix it yourself rather they let those incompetent fucks mess with it.

>just to fix it yourself rather they let those incompetent fucks mess with it.
this seems to be the sad state of all of auto repair. I loathe getting new tires because mounting them is the only thing I can't do myself.

>loathe getting new tires
Me too. I do all my own work, except mount tires(and perform recalls I guess). It is even worse for me though. The way the factory lifting points are for a 2 post lift on my car, you have to use jacking pucks or some kind of spacers to not crush the fenders. The first time I got tires I stressed this to the point I think the guy at discount tires probably thought I was an autist or something, but I don't care. I am going to need new tires in the next couple of months and I plan on sperging out just as hard to make sure they don't crush the fiberglass fenders.

>tfw pay extra to get my tires mounted at the dealer since they're the only place in this mongoloid town that won't scratch the fuck out of my rims

Depends where you go. A lot of the luxury dealers are alright where I am (especially Lexus service).

Well, called GM. They simply asked if I could prove that the buttons worked before that. How the fuck can i? Not like I recorded a video of it working before... Seems like I'll have to pay of my own pocket for that... Beware of recalls. I wouldn't be surprised if, because a recall is free, they break something else on purpose just to get you to pay for anything.

I made this whole thread and you all fell for it! EPIC!

I took my work Fiesta in to fix the clutch packs in the auto tranny. Now my touchless power window no longer works. Don't know what they did and it's still under warranty so I will have to bring it back. Also, the auto tranny a shit.

Sorry, I meant the one-touch power windows not touchless.

How did they manage this feat?
