all i have to say is ahhhhh!!!!!! i wish i found this sight before buying my car... now im totally freaking out! okay so i wake up for work this morning get ready and head to my car. to my surprise (its been just fine for the 6 days!! that I've owned it) my car starts up just fine, but as soon as i let go of the key it shuts itself off.. now I'm sitting here over an hour late for work with no way of getting there (its pay day on Friday and i have no money for a cab and I've never used a bus!). if anyone has had this happen before or if they know the problem/solution i would really appreciate a comment back. like i said.. starts like charm,let go of the key and it stops running... ugh!! ~stranded until further notice, ape
