Consumer Description

1) LEADING EVENTS - PURCHASED THE CAR IN 2009 USED FROM A CERTIFIED DEALER, WAS PROVIDED WITH 2 SEPARATE SETS OF KEYS. WITHIN THE FIRST 6 MONTHS OF DRIVING I NOTICED INCREASED DIFFICULTY IN STARTING THE CAR WITH THE KEYS PROVIDED. ALERTED DEALER AND WAS GIVEN ANOTHER SET OF KEYS. 2) FAILURE - KEY TO IGNITION FREQUENTLY STICKS AND STAYS IN THE IGNITION WHILE CAR IS RUNNING. ALSO HAVE IDENTIFIED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL FREQUENTLY LOCKS WHICH MAKES IT EVEN MORE DIFFICULT TO START THE IGNITION. 3) INITIALLY I WAS GIVEN A REPLACEMENT KEY FROM THE DEALER THAT WORKED ON AND OFF. THE CAR WILL BE TURNED IN FOR SERVICE THIS WEEKEND TO DETERMINE WHAT THE DEFECT IS IF ANY ON THE CAR. ESTIMATED COST $250-$500. *TR
