Was Vehicle Towed: -	Description of the Complaints: The security warning light was coming on intermittently and would stay on for 1-4 minutes then go off. this started in march 2006. then one day the car would not start. called aaa - mechanic fixed by leaving key turned on for about 10 minutes - then car started. this "problem" of not starting started occurring more frequently and so had a mechanic check into it. he immediately told me, once i presented the problem the car was having, that the ignition switch in these cars were notorious for going bad and needed to be replaced. so, i had it replaced. now, it's july 2006 and the security warning light is coming on again. so - now what?! *nm
