If it is the ignition lock that is broken and will not turn and you have AAA try calling them to see if your plan covers road side, your driveway, service from a AAA locksmith to fix the ignition lock. My plan covered it and it was well worth it. Kept the same key.

If it is the switch and not the lock then you can do this your self. You will keep the same key as the lock is not changed just the switch. I have not done it but have seen several post questions on this topic.
