A Stuck Ignition Can Cause Problems in Your Driveway, Too

In many cars, the ignition key unlocks the steering wheel, so until you get ignition repair you’re pretty much stuck. You can’t even move the car very much until you get the steering free, but we can fix the broken ignition, make an ignition key replacement if needed, and make your car mobile again! Our locksmith services can take care of any other car key replacement needs, such as making new keys for your doors, trunk, and glovebox if your ignition replacement involves a new key, or in many cases, we can rekey the ignition to match your existing keys. We also offer ignition key, EEPROM, and ECU or ECM repairs to go with your ignition repair services.

Specialized Volkswagen Ignition Repair

We specialize in everything automotive including VW brand ignition repair.

With over 25 years of experience, there isn’t much we can’t do. That includes VW ignition repair.

If your steering lock or ignition fails, we can fix the issue promptly and completely. We have the expertise to get the job done right on-site.

How Does the Key Get Stuck?

When your VW ignition is broken, it can be frustrating and even dangerous if the key is stuck in the On position. If this is the case, the engine can’t be turned off unless you disconnect it under the hood, which obviously presents its own problems. The key may also get stuck in the Off or Accessories positions as well. Luckily, this VW faulty ignition problem can be solved by our locksmiths. Our team has seen this issue time and time again, and we have the experience and knowledge to get your vehicle up and running again in no time.

What Causes This Issue?

Wear and tear on the ignition system over time can cause small parts to seize up, leading to the key getting stuck in one position. We know exactly what needs to be done to get your ignition back in working order. The solution is to remove the ignition and replace it, which can be a long process. However, our skilled locksmiths will remove and replace the broken parts on-site, without moving your car to a workshop or auto garage.

What Models Are Affected?

If you’re driving a Volkswagen made between 2000 and 2012, your vehicle may be at risk for this ignition problem. Models like the Golf, Polo, Amarok, Beetle and Jetta are some of the most affected. We can help with all of the following VW ignition issues:

• VW ignition replacement
• VW Beetle ignition replacement
• VW Golf ignition replacement
• VW Jetta ignition replacement

We’ve got the VW parts to fix your ignition issue.

When this problem occurs, your key may get stuck in the ignition in the Off position, Accessories position, or even the On position with the engine running.
