Default ignition problems help

So 7 months ago i thought i lost my key's. So i stayed at my girls house and her dad woke me up saying i got your jeep to crank... went out their and he drilled the key cylinder out and started it with a screwdriver.. now the little brown plastic peice that sets behind the key cylinder disappeared in the ignition. Get this my keys were about 5 feet away from my jeep -_-! Put it all back together and now every so often the key hangs

Ummm I really hope he got your approval to do that before he went ahead and did that? Otherwise... He better be the one paying to fix it?
