Consumer Description

SOLUTION! SOLUTION! SOLUTION! WE HAD THE SAME TYPES OF PROBLEMS AS THE BELOW PROBLEM ENTRY AND THE FIRST 4 PROBLEM ENTRIES FOLLOWING THIS ONE. UPON INVESTIGATION, THE PROBLEM WAS TRACED DOWN TO A FAULTY IGNITION KEY CYLINDER. THE METAL CONTACT ON THE INSIDE OF THE CYLINDER WAS DEFORMED, THEREBY CAUSING INTERMITTENT CONTACT. WHEN THE IGNITION KEY CYLINDER WAS REPLACED, IT COMPLETELY SOLVED ALL OF THE PROBLEMS LISTED. ALL THE DASH LIGHTS WILL COME ON AND BLINK. ALL GAUGES GO TO 0. SOMETIMES THE ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF FOR A FEW SECONDS (NO POWER STEERING OR BRAKES) THEN RESTART ALL BY IT'S SELF. I CAN BE PARKED IN THE GARAGE OR GOING DOWN THE ROAD, THAT DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER. THERE'S ANOTHER VEHICLE IN TOWN LIKE MINE DOING THE SAME THING. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED PARTS WITH NO POSITIVE RESULTS.
