Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: After finishing driving the vehicle and removing keys from ignition the car will ding, the same ding that happens if you leave your keys in the ignition. if i exit the vehicle and try to lock the doors and arm the alarm with the remote keyless entry the car will not lock or arm the alarm, if i try to manualy use the keys to lock the vehicle it unlocks the car. the only way that i can fix this is if i turn the car back on and then turn it off. this occurs totaly randomly and occurs about once every month. it started about 6-8 months after i got the car in march 2006. its not that big of a hassle now except sometime i might go to lock the car and think it locked when it didn't. i don't want this to be the start of a bigger electrical problem because i am also having the airbag issue that many people are having. *ak
