Consumer Description

AS I WAS MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN, A KEY FROM MY KEY RING BECAME LODGED IN A SCREW HOLE IN THE STEERING WHEEL. AS I WAS EXITING THE TURN, THE LODGED KEY RAN UP INTO THE ARM OF THE WIPER BLADES CONTROL, PREVENTING THE WHEEL FROM STRAIGHTENING OUT. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TURNING AND RAN INTO A PARKED CAR. THE REPORTING POLICE OFFICER OBSERVED AND NOTED THE DEFECT IN HIS POLICE REPORT. NO TICKET WAS ISSUED. *TR
