Cause

The first two conditions are normal operating characteristics of the Catera's ignition cylinder mechanism. These characteristics are present on all Catera's and should not be considered problems to be worked on by the dealership. The third condition, key stuck in ignition, indicates a malfunction in the Catera's unique Park/Lock system and should be diagnosed and repaired per the procedures in this bulletin.
