Consumer Description

THE KEY COMES OUT OF THE IGNITION CYLINDER LOCK. I HAVE HAD MY KEY REPLACED TWICE. THE SECURITY LIGHT COMES ON AND THE CAR DASH SAYS UNKNOWN DRIVER. EVEN THOUGH I HAVE HAD THE KEYS REPLACED WHICH, WHEN AAA HAD A LOCKSMITH COME OUT TO MAKE ME A KEY, THE TECHNICIAN SAYS THAT THE CYLINDER LOCK HAD BEEN FILED DOWN. WITH THIS POSSIBLY BEING THE ISSUE IT IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR ME AND 8 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. THE KEY SHOULD NEVER COME OUT OF THE CYLINDER LOCK AND NOW MY MECHANIC IS TALKING LIKE THIS HAS LIKELY CAUSED PROBLEMS FOR THE BCM. I AM NEEDING SOME ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER. THE CAR STARTS WHEN IT WANTS TO AND IF IT DOESN'T START IT TAKES A COUPLE OF DAYS THEN RESETS. THIS IS A BIG HEADACHE WHEN THIS IS THE ONLY TRANSPORTATION I HAVE TO GET TO WORK AND TAKE MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL. *TR
