Go to park the truck, short trip or long drive, and once is a while the ley won't turn off all the way, and I can't get it out of the ignition. Have gotten stuck a couple of times with this. Anyone know the GM fix for this? I have found that there's a GM service bullitin about this, having to do with the shifter. My baby is an 18 with 23K on the dial. Help???!!!
