I got out the driveway and made a right turn. The ignition key jump out of the ignition key hole and broke the key handle ( plastic with remote doors/trunk opening. The car stalled and stop. I put the key ( the metal part) in but the engine did not start. I tried super glue the metal and plastic back together and turn the ignition key. The engine was on normal. I took the key out, and tried to turn it with the metal part again. The car did not start. I did not realize the serious of the problem until I read the worcester telegram gazette ( Saturday 8/13/05) and found the Honda Acura rsx has the same problem to other and it locked him three times. I may get kill if the key jump out of the ignition and stall on the highway. Please alert Honda about these problems: Could be bad ignition lock, shift interlock mechanism, or steering column or the anti-theft. Please help and investigate this serious safety device.

While driving through a residential neighborhood the steering column locked and could not be turned one way or the other. As a result the vehicle hit a parked car. Consumer took vehicle to the dealer, and they said a pin had sheared causing the steering column to break. The dealer could not determine if it happened before or after the accident. The vehicle was taken to a different mechanic and this problem was fixed. The accident caused damage to the parked car and the consumer's vehicle.

Bought my car in late July 2004 and within days it developed a ticking noise in the steering column. It has been to service and they tell me it was the keys rattling. It is indeed the steering column because it does it with the key out of the ignition if you bump the steering wheel.
