any shop can do it. they will have to replace the switch and lock cylinder.

cost is about 350-400 depending on your area and labor rates

GOT YOU A DIAGRAM

IT'D BE REALLY BENEFICIAL TO HAVE A HAYNE'S/ CHILTON'S/ ETC. REPAIR MANUAL TO GUIDE YOU THRU THIS AND FUTURE PROBLEMS

https://www.2carpros.com/questions/2007-ford-taurus-tune-up

NOT TO MENTION, A MANUAL COULD BE OBTAINED FOR A FRACTION OF THE COST OF A REPAIR BY A SHOP

JUST READING THRU ONE, WILL TEACH YOU THINGS YOU, THAT YOU NEVER THOUGHT YOU COULD DO YOURSELF......THIS IS STILL THE WAY I MAKE REPAIRS

I'M CANNOT ZACKLY TELL YOU THE STEPS HERE (REASON FOR A MANUAL) BUT LOOKS LIKE REMOVING THE SHROUD/ TURNING THE KEY/ PUSHING THE DETENT/ PULLING THE CYLINDER OUT........STICK YOU WITH A FORK....YOU'RE DONE!!!

THIS DIAGRAM S FROM "MITCHELL I", A ONLINE REPAIR MANUAL THAT WE HAVE ACCESS TO.....LOOKS PRETTY SIMPLE!

LET US KNOW HOW IT'S GOING
