Ford knows about this issue of the key not turning in the ignition and won’t fix it or provide a fix for it. That is wrong and creates a clear safety issue with this car. They should warn people that this is an issue and help us fix it instead of being corporate buttheads and acting like the issue doesn’t exist. They created the issue by using defective parts and passing them off as safe. I did not know of this issue until it happened and I researched it online.
