Default Car Diead On Me!!!

I just got my car tuned yesterday and I just had headers and 3400 stall put in 3 days ago. I started the car this morning and let it run for about 3 minutes. then I pulled out of my drive way and stared coasting down the hill. All of the sudden the steering wheel locked and I stopped my car at the bottom of the hill. I hadnt noticed it shut off and then I put the car in park and started it back up again. Hasnt died since.

Are your sure your knee didn't hit the key. I did that once. I drove a car and moved the seat up. Well my friend gets in then and he is about 7 inches taller then me and he didn't move the seat. Well as we drive along he hits the key and the whole car dies. Scared me.. It was funny after that though...
