My keys are stuck in the ignition. Sometimes they come out. There is no problem with the car at all, just sometimes the keys get stuck. Any ideas as to what is causing this problem, if so, how do i fix it?

Thanks

if you had keys made up. it might be that there is a burr on the key that gets hung up. if you can get the key out. clean and check for burrs. do not spray lube in cylinder but put a very light oil on the key. work it in and out a few times. that should take care of it.
