green key is the immobilizer security system. if the light comes on while driving, it means the main computer is not recognizing the key code, which causes fuel to be cut off and disables the engine. if its under warranty, take it back. its a big mess to fix and replace those parts. also make sure you only have one coded key on your keyring.
