Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND ONCE I PUT IT INTO REVERSE TO BACK OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE, THE ENGINE LOCKED UP AND THE STEERING, BRAKES, GAS DIDN'T WORK. I HAD TO TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION AND RESTART IT. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THAT I'VE HAD THIS ISSUE WITHIN THE LAST 3 MONTHS AND THE PREVIOUS 2 INSTANCES OCCURRED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS ACTUALLY MOVING AND ACCELERATING. I HAVE HAD SOME EXTREMELY CLOSE CALLS THAT COULD HAVE ENDED VERY DANGEROUSLY BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. I USE MY CAR KEYS WITHOUT ANY OTHER KEYS ATTACHED, SO THAT IT'S AS LIGHTWEIGHT AS POSSIBLE. IN THE PAST YEAR, THIS SAME EXACT ISSUE HAS HAPPENED 8 TIMES AND IS BEGINNING TO OCCUR MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY. I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE SOME RECOGNITION OF THIS ISSUE. *TR
