More ignition problems for GM. In addition to the switch being able to easily move into the off/acc position, now the recall has added "the key can be removed from the ignition while driving or in the on/acc position".

The example they gave on the CBS news, you can stop, think you put it in park, shut the car off, and remove the key. Then when you get out thinking its in park, but it's not, the car could rollaway into something.

I've actually, maybe once or twice, shut the truck off and tried to pull the key out, but it wouldn't come out. I then realized I was still in drive so I had to put it in park to get the key out. So apparently with GMs ignitions the key can still be pulled out while the vehicle is in gear.

The headaches keep coming for GM. Then again, Ford just announced a huge recall too.
