Problems with 2001 Cadillac DeVille VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

Car keeps stalling out (at light, while driving, etc) with the cause apparently attributed to a faulty ignition switch. i had the ignition switch replaced (for a charge of $496) at midway cadillac in pokomoke md (after having car towed there on feb 14, 2014, because at that time, had difficulty even getting the key in the ignition switch). the problem i was having with it stalling out persists, even after the new ignition switch. writing because the ignition-switch-related problems i am having appear to be the same or similar to other gm cars which are currently being recalled due to ignition switch problems. please include the cadillac deville 2001 into your investigation regarding faulty ignition switches of gm-made cars. *tr
