Why Your Car Key May Not Turn



There are a variety of reasons for why your key won't turn. Some are easy fixes,
while others require more technical expertise or assistance from a professional.



AutoZone associates can replace the majority of traditional keys that don't
contain chip by choosing a matching key blank and using machines to replicate
the contours of your current key. This process usually takes minutes.



Ignition Socket



Sometimes, the car's key will stop working at the most inconvenient moment. For
example, when you are putting groceries in the trunk or rushing to the gym. Or
even when you are heading home from a long workday. The good news is that if the
problem is caused by your key fob battery or a dead lock it is usually very
simple to repair and could help you save the cost of an expensive replacement.

an older model vehicle. Designed to be a better anti-theft device they emit a

dealerships also do this, but they might require proof of ownership and a
deposit.
