sounds good, but that's the problem with this steering lock. it seems to be intermittent.. but if it happened to you once, it will probably happen again.

some folks here had their car towed but when the dealer received the car it started up fine. (like your case). while that's great (less towing fees) that does not explain what caused the failure.

another guy had his car towed, mis-diagnosed as the IPDM failure by the dealer, then 5-6 days later the same problem re-ocurred and re-towed and i think his dealer finally decided to replace the steering lock.

on the threads a while ago, we were originally thinking this was an IPDM failure, but it seems to be caused by the steering lock.
