This was kind of annoying because when starting the van you could drive it but none of the lights, instruments, of radio would work.

While driving, the key turned to accessory position. I think I might have hit a speed bump. The engine shuts off and it's hard to steer and brake. Once this happened in a parking lot, another on the freeway. (no speed bump but construction zone). The first time this happened I thought it was a fault with my engine. I found that it was only the key. The second time was scary because at freeway speeds, hard brakes and steering, through a "cone zone" with no place to stop. I put it in neutral, started the engine and was able to regain power steering/brakes and since it was at night, no traffic, I stopped, shifted into drive (I don't know if you can/should shift to drive while moving) and then I continued on.
The first time I had many keys on my key ring, I took them off. If this happens again, I'll report it again (separately)
