I dashed inside my friends home and back to my car in approximately 48 seconds, and the key would not turn the ignition. Then the steering locked. I was not in a parking lane. I spent 90 mins fiddling with this issue. Disconnecting the battery, searching for what I thought was a factory anti theft device I could disable. To no avail, I had to tow my car home costing 125.00. I read all the complaints and I hope to use a hammer to slightly hit the key and see if that will work. Hope it does. Needless to say, I would love to be part of the petition to sue Ford for not doing a recall on this issue. We cannot be all lying about the same issue. I do not know you guys. But here I am with the problem. This is not a made up story.
