My sister just bought a new accent its white with auto and alarm and finishing paint thing. To cut to the point like 15 mins ago she tried to start her car but it didn't start so i tryed like 3 or 4 times to and on the 5 try it started. The key didn't even turn. Yes the car was in park the emegancy brake was up, i dont know y it that. Has that ever happen to any of you?
Is the Steering wheel locked? I know that if the wheel turns to far it locks and won't allow you to turn the key. I had to pull the wheel either a little to the left or a little to the right with some force and it lets the key loose.

Yea, this happened to me before with my Accent. The wheel locks, you have to turn it and then the key goes in. I remember this quite well, because I got all upset I couldn't turn the key, called my boyfriend at the time's mom and she came and found that out. LoL Boy did I feel stupid. :embarrassed:
