Q: what could it be?
Last week car wouldnt start so it was diagnosed as a ignition safety switch, replaced it then it started just fine and every day for about a week, Now it is doing the same things again i replaced the switch once more and now it still wont start. when i turn the key over it takes a couple of secs for the odometer and stuff to pop up. The car is not registering its in park, key is stuck in ignition, car wont come out of gear, only lights that work are the odometer reading on the dash, have to manually unlock car doors, radio doesnt work either. Already replaced the battery as well.
My car has an automatic transmission.
