I was just on the phone with my indie mechanic. They tried to get an ignition lock from Honda as the starting problems come from the ring in there that reads the key and tells the fuel pump relay to give fuel or not. Turns out Honda used two different ones, and even with the full VIN can’t tell which one we need. I have to bring the car in for them to take it out, look at it, order the part and then put it back in. And, of course, I then have to return a few days later to have the new one installed. I thought that this was the 21st century, not the middle ages.

Businesses have a common fail point, humans and the questionable choices they make.

If it WERE the middle ages, one would work across the ENTIRE product line....
In the future when ignition locks become damaged/broken we will have to scrap the entire vehicle so we are forced to buy new ones...... Planned obsolescence by manufacturing defects. The more I drive new cars, the more I like my older ones.....

You’d be surprised how little the manufacturers know about supplier related parts *cough*TAKATA*cough* when it comes to what parts are in your vehicle.
