Consumer Description

KEY IS GETTING STUCK IN IGNITION AFTER CAR IS PLACED IN PARK AND TURNED OFF. CAR MUST BE MOVED OUT OF PARK INTO NEUTRAL AND PARK INTO PARK MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE KEY CAN BE REMOVED FROM IGNITION. AT TIMES I HAVE HAD TO LEAVE THE KEY IN THE CAR AND RETURN LATER IN ORDER TO REMOVE IT. THIS IS CREATING A HAZARD NOT ONLY FOR THE POTENTIAL FOR THE CAR TO BE STOLEN BUT ALSO IT KEEPS ME FROM MOVING MY CAR QUICKLY IF NECESSARY.
