Hi,

I think you are having two unrelated issues. The electrical ignition switch and a bad MAF. Any connection is simply coincidence. @Travis, the ignition is two-pqrt, an electrical switch and mechanical steering lock-out. Either can break. The TSB you refer to has the Dealer no longer fixing either part when there's a problem, they now just replace them both. Probably another Beak-wetting for the Dealers...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
