Car would not shut off even when ignition was turned off. Ran the battery down to get turned off. Jumped it to get to repair shop. Dealership replaced something though it was diagnostics said it was a relay. Picked it up and when driven the engine raced. Took it back again, dealership said it was a NEW problem. Which they fixed. (Don't know what it was.) Will pick it up tomorrow.
