Ignition recall , the switch has been replaced twice . I am still having issues when leaving key in ignition in the off position , all dash lights flash and a lot of clicking noise and will all lock doors . The service air bag light will come on , when you turn it off and restart car it goes out . I took it to the dealership and was told that they could not find the switch defective and they would not replace it , or check into the matter with out charging me a service fee of several hundred dollars . I travel long distances , and concerned about my safety , and other that could be involved in an accident .
