Description of the problem | Ignition key can be removed/falls out when vehicle is being driven. We have had six incidents where we parked car and removed key and then car started rolling. In two incidents an open door of the rolling car caught person knocking them down, one incident just missed rolling over foot. In each case found that car was not in park with key removed. Have also had multiple incidents where key was removed but ignition remained on draining the cars battery each time. Very hard to get key lock into "off" position. |
