Yep, the ignition lock tumbler has fallen apart internally, you will need to replace the part to fix it, here is a guide that might help as well. If you get the part from the dealer they can code it for you before installation. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.
