I got stranded in front of an ice cream shop. Key light stayed illuminated and the car wouldnt come out of locked mode. Steering wheel was not locked

After beating the escl (at this point people thought I was stealing my own car) until it finally released and then I did the fuse trick while the car was on acc mode. I know the car was in ACC mode because the radio was on when i initially pulled the fuse. After a full day of driving, no issues at all, I went to start the car that night and it had the same issue. I put the fuse back in (luckily I kept it on me) and whacked it a few times with the tow hook and it worked. Should I try pulling the fuse with the car running?

I am afraid during the next failure i wont be so lucky. I am now officially afraid to drive it. 09 man with 38k miles. Why me!!!!
