## What is wrong

On certain trucks, an internal defect in the ignition switch can cause the starter to engage when the key is partially inserted.  This would allow the engine to start unexpectedly, which could injure someone working in the engine compartment.  Also, manual transmission vehicles without the neutral start option may move unexpectedly if the transmission is in gear at the time the key is inserted.  This could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the ignition switch assembly.
