Consumer Description

IGNITION SWITCH DETERIORATED RESULTING IN A FAILURE; THERE WERE NO PRIOR INDICATIONS OF THE IMMINENCY OF THIS FAILURE. IGNITION SUBSEQUENTLY COMPLETELY FAILED TO TURN. ENTIRE IGNITION SWITCH SYSTEM REPLACED. THE KEYS WILL BE THE NEXT TO FAIL, AS THEY ARE WEARING DOWN IN A MUCH MORE SUBSTANTIAL MANNER THAN I HAVE EVER SEEN AN AUTOMOBILE KEY DETERIORATE. *NM
