Consumer Description
THE IGNITION SWITCH AT TIMES DOES NOT FULLY RETURN TO THE REMOVE POSITION AND THE IGNITION KEY CANNOT BE REMOVED. INVESTIGATION ON SOCIAL MEDIA INDICATES A PROBLEM WITH MANY SUBARU MODELS WHERE THIS "CAPTURE" OF THE IGNITION KEY OCCURS. A DRIVER FORCED TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE WITH THE KEY INSIDE REPRESENTS A SAFETY HAZARD AS A CHILD COULD USE THE CAPTURED KEY TO START THE VEHICLE AND SHIFT INTO A GEAR TO MOVE THE VEHICLE. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE CAUSED BY A DEFECTIVE "P"ARK RANGE SWITCH.
