Description of the problem | My 2015 honda accord lx key started chipping off in the lock cylinder and stop turning after 45,000 miles on the car. The lock cylinder stop turning with my key in the cylinder. The honda turned off on the interstate and i could not turn the steering wheel with this occurred. The lock cylinder, key re-programmed to match the new lock cylinder cost my $660 and was not covered by my extended warranty. This needs to be issued as a recall immediately. I also confirmed that seven (7) other honda owners at my job with keys experienced the same lock cylinder problem on the average before 30,000 miles on the odometer. They had to get the lock cylinder replaced too. |
