It started 6 months ago and is slowly getting worse. The key (both keys) will not unlock steering wheel and allow you to start the car.10

If both keys are doing it, the lock cylinder may be wearing out, causing the keys not to work.You could try a lock lube (Dry graphite), sometimes the tumblers get sticky and just need a little lube to help them out, but use only a lube specifically for locks, wet lubes will cause gumming and could make it worse
