Consumer Description

I RETURNED TO MY VEHICLE AFTER WORK AND THE VEHICLE WAS DEAD EXCEPT FOR THE REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY AND LIGHTS. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AND THERE WAS NO ACCESSORY OR ON POWER. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL LOCK AND PUSH BUTTON START HAD MALFUNCTIONED. I WAS QUOTED A REPAIR BILL OF $1,660, WHICH INCLUDES MORE THAN $1,000 IN PARTS (PARTS NUMBERS GS3M-66-15XD AND GSYD-67-5DZG ). THESE ARE BASIC SYSTEMS THAT FAILED AFTER ONLY 31,000 MILES OF USE ON A VEHICLE THAT WAS MAINTAINED VERY WELL. *TR
