I think most people will enjoy having a Sparrow, because most of these problems were pretty straightforward. If you are truly mechanically disinclined and have no intention of getting over this failing, you should probably wait a year before ordering your Sparrow. We've had to fix several things that prevented the Sparrow from working. These were all pretty simple to fix, but they were slightly annoying. There are also problems that don't prevent the car from working, but are annoying nonetheless.
Loose ignition switch The key-operated ignition switch was installed loosely.
One day I went to turn the switch and the entire assembly rotated in the dashboard. Corbin chose to use a simple, round hole for the switch, though the switch is designed for a Mazda and will fit best in a D-shaped hole. With the Sparrow's round hole, the retaining nut has to be snugged down to hold the switch in place. I used a pair of stiff, bent-nosed pliers to tighten the nut. The right tool is a kind of spanner with two properly spaced pins at the end of arms.
