Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my ignition cylinder needs repair?
Common signs include: key won't turn or gets stuck, key turns but the engine doesn't start, the steering wheel won't unlock, or you can remove the key while the car is running. If you're experiencing any of these, call us for a diagnosis.
Can you repair my ignition on-site?
Yes! Our mobile technicians carry the tools and parts needed for most ignition repairs. We come to your location — home, office, or roadside — and handle the repair on the spot.
How long does ignition repair take?
Most ignition repairs take 1–2 hours. Complex cases involving electronic steering lock modules may take longer. We'll give you a time estimate before starting.
Will I need a new key after ignition repair?
It depends on the repair. If we replace the ignition cylinder, we can often rekey it to match your existing key. If that's not possible, we'll cut and program a new key as part of the service.
