Recently tilt column has been difficult to operate now will not lock in position and lights will not work when column is tilted down. Is this a known problem with my vehicle.

NHTSA complaint #10225540, filed 2008-04, 74,000 miles

“Car wont start, then after a time it will start. It has been in for service on this matter numerous times. They removed my alarm system thinking that was the problem, it didn't work. They say they can't find the problem, but when I took it to them today, it didn't start for them either. It's not safe to drive when you can't count on it starting.”
