    The key is stuck and will not release from my ignition. I have tried numerous ways to get the key out and it just won't come out. I have had to disconnect my battery so that it doesn't drain my battery, but the issue is still there. I can't use my car to go to work due to the fact my key won't come out. This has really put me in a bind and is unacceptable. I don't have the money to have this fixed and I would like for the manufacturer to help me out. This is a real safety issue. I have had my car looked at by a mechanic and he is unsure of exactly how to fix this.

    My car suddenly started acting funny and was not running well while i was driving, when i got to a stop sign it totally died. It was towed to a shop and was totally out of oil, my car wasn't even 1500 miles over it's last oil change. The engine was totally ruined and needed to be replaced.

    The key keeps getting stuck in the ignition once the car is off. This prevents me from being able to leave my car unattended. I was trying to go grocery shopping and couldn't because the key wouldn't come out of the ignition for me to lock the doors. 01/04/2022. The most recent time this happened before today was about 2 weeks ago 12/21/2021. I tried starting the vehicle again and turning it off and it still wouldn't allow the key to release. My husband was able to get the key out the last after several hours. We will be scheduling an appointment with service center when an appointment becomes available to have it inspected. Based on research this has been an issue with captiva's in the past.

  • Electrical systemFiled Oct 3, 2021

    Key gets stuck in ignition. Lose all power WHILE DRIVING or parked! Requires a jiggle on the battery cable to restore power. Radio loses power randomly while driving. a/c shuts off. This has been happening since we bought the car in June 2021.

    Incident Oct 3, 2021

  • Unknown or otherFiled Jul 6, 2021

    The key gets stuck in ignition and can't be removed when in park. If key can't be removed and remains in the car, it will drain the battery. The key gets stuck often maybe every other trip but at least once a day. This started happening over the last 6 months on random occasions but has increased in frequency in the last 30 days. It's now a regular event in which the key won't release from the ignition. Sometimes after multiple attempts at restarting the car and changing from park to drive and then to park again and changing position of the key, it may release after 20 minutes of this process. This is a safety issue because the car can be stolen with a key left in the ignition and/or the battery will be drained. Both are not good. There are numerous reports of this issue on the internet from other other with same car.

    Incident Jul 3, 2021

  • Electrical system, engineFiled Jun 21, 2021

    Key gets stuck in ignition and takes many tries to get it out, even from day one of buying it. Was informed that was a "safety" feature provided by Chevy themselves. When shutting off the vehicle, everything dies out like the battery went completely dead and car won't start again. Have to play with battery wires and fuse box before I hear the car make any noise again. Was informed by more than one mechanic that there are GM recalls for the thermal cable, battery protective cable, and starter motors, but nothing for my VIN has popped up. Have found almost 100 other complaints on multiple sites and more than a dozen reported accidents due to this issue. Car sits at almost 98,000 miles now and it will not turn over for me. Recalls should be put out for the entirety of this model because I have met 2 other people who have had the exact same problem and were informed that the dealerships have refused to acknowledge prior recall or safety information.

    THE CAPTIVA SUDDENLY SHUTS DOWN RANDOMLY FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON. THE ISSUE WAS DIRECTED TO BE REPAIRED IN THE OTHER CHEVY VEHICLES BECAUSE THEY ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN HOWEVER THE CAPTIVA IS A FLEET VEHICLE WHICH MEANS THEY DIDN'T FIX THE KNOWN ISSUE OF PUTTING A FORD BATTERY SENSOR ON A CHEVY VEHICLE BECAUSE FLEET VEHICLES ARE RARELY SERVICED BY A DEALERSHIP. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO DIE IF THEY HAVEN'T ALREADY. THIS HAPPENED TO ME LOSING ALL POWER AND COMPLETELY SHUTTING DOWN GOING 65 MPH ON THE FREEWAY WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR WITH ME. I'VE NOT DRIVEN THIS CAR SINCE AUGUST BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO DIE AND I STILL OWE ABOUT 4 YEARS OF PAYMENTS ON THIS LEMON.

    Incident Dec 11, 2020

  • Electrical systemFiled Dec 3, 2020

    ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE VEHICLE CUTS OUT RANDOMLY, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO SHUT DOWN IF DRIVING AND LOSING POWER STEERING CONTROL AND POWER BRAKES OR THE POWER PARKING BRAKE RANDOMLY ENGAGES, CREATING THE POTENTIAL FOR A DRIVING HAZARD. POWER ALSO CUTS OUT RANDOMLY WHICH CAUSES THE VEHICLE NOT TO START. DRIVER HAS TO OPEN THE HOOD AND MANUALLY MOVE THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE CONNECTED TO THE BATTERY, SOMETIMES MULTIPLE TIMES, IN ORDER FOR POWER TO BE RESTORED. THIS MANUAL MOVE PUTS THE PERSON IN IMMEDIATE DANGER OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK SHOULD ANYTHING CREATE A POWER ARC WHILE PERFORMING THIS MANEUVER. GM SERVICE BULLETIN #13186 DATED JUNE 2013 ADDRESSES THIS ISSUE WITH A DEFECT IN THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE, BUT LIMITS IT ONLY TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD ONLY OF THE NEW VEHICLE AND NOT THE VEHICLE AS A WHOLE, YET NO RECALL HAS EVER BEEN ISSUED. BASED ON COMMENTS POSTED ON THE CHEVY FORUM, THIS PROBLEM IS CONSISTENT AND WIDESPREAD ACROSS THE CHEVY CAPTIVA VEHICLES. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME WHEN ONE OF THESE RANDOM POWER SHUTDOWNS LEADS TO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR DEATH. AT THE PRESENT TIME WE ARE FORCED TO REPLACE BOTH THE POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLES AT A COST OF $590.
