Description of the problem | The key gets stuck in the ignition, either when turning on or turning off. This happened before at 19000 miles and the part was replaced. It began exhibiting the same problems early this year and has continued to worsen to the point of it being stuck for longer periods of time. It happens when stationary, either preparing to turn the car on or off. Ive been stranded away from home while trying to get it to turn. Sometimes it does relatively easy and other times it seems like it isn't going to budge. I have no other keys or even a key chain attached. Its just the ignition key. |
