Does your car key share a chain with a dozen or more other keys? That’s a
pretty heavy load hanging off the car key when it’s in the ignition.The
weight, combined with bouncing while you drive, can wear out the
tumblers inside the ignition and eventually lead to ignition switch
failure.To add years of service to your ignition switch, purchase a
lightweight key chain that allows you to separate your ignition key from
the others. Drive with only the ignition key in your ignition. If your
ignition key “sticks” when you try to turn on the car, it’s a warning
that your ignition switch is about to fail. Replace it before you get
stranded.
