What is wrong
On certain vehicles, the electrical current through the ignition switch is above design capacity. Over time, this excessive current damages the ignition switch and may result in a fire in the vicinity of the steering column ignition switch which could spread to other parts of the vehicle's interior. Correction: Dealers will install a relay kit and, if necessary, replace the ignition switch and steering column tilt lever.
