Common questions about ignition repair.

My key won't turn — is that ignition or key?

Often the key, not the ignition. Worn keys lose tooth-depth and fail. We'll diagnose on-site and cut a fresh key first; if that doesn't fix it, we replace the cylinder.

Did my key break inside the ignition?

If you can see metal in the slot, the key broke flush. We extract the broken stub on-site without disassembling the column on most cars.

Will you tow my car if you can't fix it?

We don't tow. If the cylinder is too damaged to repair on-site (rare), we tell you and you call roadside. We don't charge for the trip if we can't complete the job.

How much does ignition replacement cost?

Service-call quote on the phone before we dispatch. Cylinder + labor for most cars is well under what a dealer's tow + repair quote would be.

Got locked out at 11pm. Tech was here in 22 minutes. Polite, fast, reasonable price. Saved my night.

Lost the only key to my Honda. They cut and programmed a new one in my driveway. Half the dealer quote.

Re-keyed three locks after I bought my house. Showed up on time, walked me through everything, gave me a printed receipt.
