“Car loses power while driving if key is bumped or if car hits a bump key is easily put in the accessory position and car loses all power. This happened when the keychain was bumped in the middle of an intersection, another time while making a left turn, and another time while driving about 25mph. This is easily duplicated because while driving I have been able to turn the key to the accessory position and it loses all power. My concern is that this will happen while driving on the freeway and a serious accident will happen.”
