Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2000 FORD FOCUS LX. THE IGNITION CYLINDER "FELL" OR BROKE OR WHATEVER IT IS CALLED. THE NET EFFECT IS THAT THE KEY WOULD NOT GO INTO THE IGNITION AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER. IT WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY ON JAN 17, 2002. 19500 MILES APPROXIMATELY. THE NEXT TIME THE IGNITION SWITCH FAILED WAS DECEMBER 4, 2002. SAME SYMPTOMS AND THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACED AGAIN. AGAIN UNDER WARRANTY. APPROXIMATELY 33394 MILES. NOW AGAIN NOVEMBER 5, 2003 THE KEY IS HAVING TROUBLE SLIDING IN AND OUT AGAIN. I'M SURE I'LL BE UP FOR ANOTHER IGNITION SWITCH REPLACEMENT AND RE-KEYING SOON.I REALLY FEEL FORD NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND THEN RECALL SO THAT WE CAN HAD RELIABLE IGNITION SWITCHES.*AK THANKS CAROL. *AK
