My key constantly gets stuck in the ignition. My car turns on but not off which leaves me to unhook the battery and take out fuse so no one steals my car overnight. A lot of people i know with jettas are having this same issues. I think it is a malfunction with the ignition switch. I also have a lot of electrical issues.
