Consumer Description

I WENT TO START MY CAR AND THE KEY WOULD NOT TURN OVER. THE IGNITION WAS LOCKED UP AND NOTHING I DID WOULD RELEASE IT. I TRY TO MOVE THAT STEERING WHEEL, STEP ON THE BRAKES, MOVE THE GEAR SHIFT, NOTHING. IT HAS DONE IT BEFORE BUT I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO STEERING WHEEL TO MOVE AND THE CAR START. BUT NOT NOW. NOW IT IS BEING TOW TO GET IT FIX. I ALSO HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE RADIO NOT WORKING BECAUSE THE FRONT OF THE RADIO BECOMES WARPED. AND WILL NOT TOUCH THE PRONGS INSIDE THE RADIO. HAD IT REPLACE ONE TIME BEFORE AND NOW I BROUGHT ONE TO PUT IN THERE. *NM
