We just purchased this car and the key won't shut the car off. The dealer only had 1 key with the vehicle and I have an appointment to get a new key made. I was wondering if there is a safe, quick way to shut the car down if the key that we are getting isn't the problem and I get stranded someplace with a car that won't turn off.
