So my ignition key has been loose in the switch since I got it back in January. What I mean by lose is that when I insert the key, there seems to be a lot of slop or play in the fit. Over the last month I’ve noticed that sometimes the key won’t turn the switch. After a couple giggles, pull the key out, try again, and then the lock on the switch released and I could start it up.
Yesterday was the first drive in a week. Same thing in the morning, and when I went to lunch. When I left work, problem. It took me about 5 minutes of giggling, shaking, pulling in and out to finally get the tumbler to release the lock. On the way home I stopped at the grocery store. When I got back in it took 10 minutes before I could get the lock released.
So my question is what to do? Should I just go buy a new ignition switch & door locks OR is there an easy solution to this problem? If I’m buying new, is there a BEST supplier to buy from or are they all the same?
