The key has been sticking in my ignition when i park. this time when i could not get the key out, i restarted the car in park, of course with my foot on the brake. the car jumped into reverse and flew backwards out of my garage at a high rate of speed. it crossed the road and ended up knocking down a garage and totaling the car. the brakes were on as evidenced by the tire tread and skid marks. it was a bizarre occurrence and very frighteningly. *jb
While driving 40 mph, my car engine stopped. after being in the shop for a month, they detected that the tackometer was bad and replace it. this is a major safety issue in that i do not feel comfortable driving the car anymore. it has not occurred again but i think this needs to be researched. regarding the radio, we have had problems with this over the last year. i have had them look at the problem at least 12 times. we are having static throughout the chicagoland area.*ak
