Consumer Description

CAR FAILS TO START MORE THAN FREQUENTLY. WAS TOLD TO REPLACE IGNITION SWITCH, A COST OF $254.00. DON'T THINK CAR SHOULD ALREADY NEED IGNITION REPLACED. CAR HAS DIED COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE NUMEROUS TIMES. ALSO HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH IF DASH LIGHTS COME ON OR JUST THEFT DETERRENT LIGHTS. DAY RUNNING LIGHTS ARE EQUAL TO REG HEADLIGHTS, ALL SYSTEM LIGHTS TURN ON WHEN CAR IS STARTED, NO NEED TO EVEN TURN SWITCH ON, COULD THIS BE NORMAL? MECHANIC INSTALLED A SWITCH UNDER HOOD THAT CONNETS DIRECTLYTO MY STARTER SO WHEN CAR FAILS TO START I PUSH SWITCH AND SHE STARTS RIGHT UP, HE SAID SOMETHING IN COLUMN BUT HE NOT ABLE TO PINPOINT. STEERING COLUMN DOESNOT LOCK, EVER! *JB
