do you mean you can take the keys outta the ignition when the car is on??

if so mine has done b4 i bought my car and i have no problems with my igintion and my keys..

i acutally use it to my advantage, on cold winter morning i turn my car and take my keys out and lock the doors and let the car warm up and the car is locked 8)

i think that means it was was stolen before you got it. cuz what they did was take a slide hammer and slid it into the ignition and slide the hammer back to break the tumblers.
