Ignition Repair FAQ

My key will not turn in the ignition. What is wrong?

Common causes are a worn key, a worn cylinder, or the steering wheel lock binding. Try turning the wheel gently while turning the key. If it still will not budge, call us and we will diagnose it at the car.

Do I need to tow my car to a shop?

No. Ignition work is done where the car sits. Our vans carry the parts and tools, and the car starts again before we leave.

Will I need new keys after an ignition replacement?

We cut new keys to match the new cylinder as part of the job. In many cases we can also key the new cylinder to your existing key so one key still runs everything.

How much does ignition repair cost in St. Louis?

It depends on whether the fix is the key, the cylinder, or the switch. The technician diagnoses first and confirms the exact price before any work starts. Request a quote online and save 10%.

My key is stuck in the ignition. Should I keep trying to pull it?

No, forcing it can snap the key and turn one problem into two. Leave it in place and call us. We free stuck keys without damage and fix whatever caused it.

Ignition Repair Reviews

★★★★★

My Impala's ignition finally gave out in the driveway. They replaced the cylinder and cut matching keys the same visit. Started on the first turn.
