More than likely the ignition switch is out-of-adjustment. It is mounted on the upper right side of the steering column, under the dash. There are two screws to loosen, usually 5/16" hex heads, then the holes are slotted to allow the switch to be slid up and down to adjust it.

It may be best to start a new post with your specific vehicle and issue because this was from a few years ago. However, assuming your vehicle is the same as this post, here is the process for replacing the ignition switch.
