Hello, I just bought a 2014 VW Jetta SE(Automatic) that passed inspection. The day I bought the car, everything was good.?


But now I notice 3 things when I try to start the car:

The Steering wheel is locked
The Emergency brake is locked
The lights on the dashboard light up but the car doesn't start. I have to twist the key a few times before the car starts up.

Is this normal for a Jetta? The dealership where I bought the car is an hour drive. I don t want to drive all the way down there unless I have to.

Sounds like the ignition housing or tumbler is jamming up. They may requires replacmeent.
