I gotta agree on Ford's part with the whole not being able to turn your car, remember a few months ago how that P-plater turned his car off on a freeway or something to save fuel and he ended up crashing and dieing because his steering locked?

If desperate, reach under the dash, grab a fist full of wiring and yank firmly. Something will break, sure, but it needed fixing anyway. Hahaha.

My old Corona, you could start it, pull the key out of the ignition in the on position and leave it running with the doors locked. Was handy on cold nights.
