It was working fine when I arrived at work, but when I got in to head home, I couldn't get the key in the ignition....could it be to locking assembly? Is it a major cost??

Thanks!

Try a small squirt of wd40 in the cylinder. You will probably have to replace the cylinder assembly.

Thank you! Is it costly???
What about having to re-program the key fob? Does it matter if there is any anti-theft device on the car?
