Key will not turn in ignition
I have a 98 Plymouth Breeze and have recently found the key will not
turn in the ignition. I have tried wiggling and jiggling the steering column but to no avail. The wheel is locked. All I need to do is get it started so I can take the car to the dealer which is approximately 60 kms away. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Jim. |

a lock smith is cheaper than the dealer and might even come to your place
