I received a notice about the same issues with my Camaro. It's really nothing new and i won't be swapping my keys out for the new one. My dodge truck is easier to hit the key while driving than my camaro. This is classic big industry over reaction. They got busted and now they are reporting everything to save face. The company i work for does the same thing.

I moved my seat until my knee would hit it at the correct angle... it was impossible to drive sitting like that. My truck all i have to do is lift my leg straight up and it hits. There is nothing wrong with the camaro ignition. They are replacing the key with one that is not offset like the flip out keys are.

Both of my fbodies have the VATS key too. You can google how to bypass it. It is as simple as soldering a resistor in. I've never had any issues with mine though.
