Purchased 95 Jetta, runs----when you can get key from pos 1 to pos 2 (very difficult and time consuming. there does not appear to be any damage to ignition switch...

Is this a typical problem?

Thank you, and I appreciate any response, as I do not have a way to make a donation at this time.

thanks!
