    I wanted to close the loop on the Electrical SMTs attempt to bring a new ignition switch design to the Delta/Kappa vehicles for MY 08 As the VSE for the Cobalt launch Iwea very aware of an Issue with inadvertent ignition offs due to the low mounted ignition switch In the steering column and the low efforts required to rotate th ignitionA new, more robust, increased effort design is currentJy being implemented on the GMT191 program for MY 07. My intention was to bring this part number commondesign to the Delta/Kappa vehicles for MYOB. I attended an X Vapir with the Delta team-to--review the pros/cons of this change. The con of the change is that the piececoat of the ignition switch went up around $0.90 and would requ!re S400K in tooling to add the almost 500K in volume.

    At the X Vapir my team was challenged to offset the piece cost with warranty savings and/or reduced PC/mv. I worked thrcugh Purchasing with Stoneridge Pollak to gainthe reductions. Stoneridge Pcllakwas unwilling to budge on their PC/mv. The warranty offset for the new switch is in the SOlO-C t5 range

    It was felt by the Delta team that the revision of the slot in the igntion key to a hole would aignificantly reduce ths inadvertent offs and maka any additional changesunnecessary

    Consequently, the ignition switch for the Deltas and Kappas will remain the carryover single detent switch until the piece cost hit can be eliminated or significantlyreduced My plan is to resource this switch design for MY 09 and make it available for the Deltas, Kappas, and 19X families.
