Default AHHH! SCL Part II

My baby is stuck in the gold's gym parking lot. Had the first column lock recall taken care of, where it wouldnt lock up while driving down the road. But guess there was another recall in 2006, where it can lock up anytime, hmm. Turned the car on, everythings working fine, then.. BAM! "Pull key, wait 10 seconds" Pops up. Didnt notice anything wrong, car was on and everything worked (steering) So i turned car off and as soon as the key went to off position i got the dreadful "Steering Column Lock". So i turned it off, tried jiggling the wheel left and right, and just tried different things (p brake on/off, in gear/out.. etc) So now its sitting in the parking lot and for the night. I feel GM should pay for the inconvenience as well as the tow charges to the Chevrolet dealer. So i figure i'll call the local dealerships and raise hell with whoever i can find.

Any advice would be greatly apprecited!

Call the dealer that did the recall.

That's the awesome thing. The dealer which i'd originally bought the car from moved... to Detroit. Mind i'm still here where i bought it in NY.
