Mechanic/Repair for BCM/Ignition in DFW - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Can anyone recommend someone that can check out my 2011 SS to diagnose and repair my car. The issue began when I would place my car in park (auto), and turn the key off and remove it. The engine would continue running. I would turn the key off and on until eventually it registered as turning off. The next morning, I would wake up with my check engine light on as if the key was placed and turned to the first slot in the ignition for the accessories. I could hit the button and turn my radio on. The car however would not start, and I haven’t been able to start it since then. I found someone on the forums who had nearly identical symptoms as me who had a bad BCM in his car caused by a ground circuit that was causing a disconnect with the ignition and the fuel pump module. He got a used BCM and had it reprogrammed to his car. I bought a new ignition switch thinking that was the problem but that didn’t fix it.

Does anyone have a recommendation for where to take it? Obviously a dealer is on the table because of the programming, but I am weary of dealers. My body guy won’t recommend any mechanics to me either since they are all crooks according to him. Thanks!
