| Description of the problem | The car failed to start; i see lots of complains where the steering wheel locks in place and so does the brake and the car fails to start. I had the same problem twice already and the dealer told me to replace the key less switch however, the problem continues and i see that the problem was not the key. As i can see others are having similar issues of the car locking in place and the problem is more than just the key problem.. This should be definitely recalled. *jb |
