Re: key stuck in ignition

My first question would be is this the ORIGINAL FACTORY key or one that has been made at a hardware store?
We had a spare key made (Always try to use the Factory Key as a master NOT a Copy when making a new key) The spare key that we had made would work, but it would be hard to get to ACCY.when turning it backwards! The Factory Key did not have this problem, thus the key machine or operator did not make a good copy.
I would suggest getting some lock Lub if this is not the case. You may find it will fix your problem.. Replacing the ignition lock requires some special tools.
Good Luck!
