Consumer Description

THE SHIFTER, STEERING WHEEL AND IGNITION KEY ALL LOCK UP ON MY 2004 FORD FOCUS. I SIMPLY GUIDE MY CAR TO WHERE I WANT TO PARK IT. STOP, PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TURN OFF THE CAR. WHEN I GO TO START MY CAR AGAIN, EVERYTHING IS LOCKED UP AND TAKES A LONG TIME TO GET IT UNLOCKED. I ALMOST HAVE TO BREAK OFF THE KEY TO GET IT STARTED. *TR
