Consumer Description

ON SUNDAY I STARTED MY VAN WITH THE REMOTE AND PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. ONCE IN THE BUSY STREET, THE ENGINE DIED AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED, LEAVING ME UNABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. FORTUNATELY THERE WERE NO CARS COMING AND I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM WAS THAT THE IGNITION DIDN'T RECOGNIZE THE KEY, AND THEREFORE SHUT OFF AFTER THE PRESCRIBED TIME OF LETTING THE ENGINE RUN THROUGH THE KEYLESS START. I WANT TO MAKE YOU AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BECAUSE IT SEEMS IT COULD BE QUITE DANGEROUS. I HAVE ALSO REPORTED THIS INCIDENT TO THE MANUFACTURER SO THEY CAN BE ADVISED OF IT AS WELL. *TR
