Consumer Description

NORMAL DRIVING OCCASIONALLY CAUSES THE IGNITION KEY, KEY TUMBLER AND SURROUNDING METAL CYLINDER TO BECOME VERY HOT. THIS IS OCCURRING IN A BRAND NEW 2010 TOYOTA YARIS THAT ONLY HAS 200+ MILES ON IT. THE TOYOTA SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THEY CAN FIND NOTHING WRONG . IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE MONTH THAT I OWN THE CAR AND DID NOT HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR WAS AT THE SERVICE DEPT. THEY SAID THE VOLTAGE WAS WITHIN SPECIFICATIONS AND THAT IT'S NORMAL TO GET A HOT IGNITION KEY AND TUMBLER. THE CAR WAS NOT IN THE SUN . I DON'T BELIEVE IT IS NORMAL. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT A FIRE STARTING. I'VE BEEN DRIVING FOR MANY YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD THIS CAR PROBLEM BEFORE. *TR
