Description of the problem | When parking our car, the key got stuck in the ignition switch and could not be removed. Obviously, we could not leave the car in a parking lot with the key in the ignition. I looked at a video on youtube: https://www. Youtube. Com/watch? V=a4t6ydzkb5g and this guy's video saved the day. This obviously has happened for other people and seems to be an intermittent problem. We will be taking this to the dealer to fix, however, since it apparently has been happening to others for years i thought i should report it to you. If it is not fixed by hyundai i will let you know. The vehicle was not in motion. |
