Contact the dealer with the VIN and get a new key cut.

Or if you have AAA call then to see if they can help.

Usually a locksmith can come and cut a key in your driveway. It's not necessarily cheap but can be done.

Depending on how worn out your ignition is you can use another jeep key to start it. Mine is worn enough to be started by almost any key in my group lol
