Hey everyone,
I have an interesting issue and I am wondering if anyone else has experienced the same thing. I was camping this past weekend and when I went to the beach I did not want to bring the electronic fob so I thought I would bring the physical key. I went to test it out to make sure that I could still open the car and to my surprise the key didn't turn. It's a different cut on the two sides so I tried it the other way and nothing. I went and grabbed my wife's keys and it was the same thing. I tried to turn it at different stages of having the key inserted (maybe it was going in too far) and still nothing.
I took it into the dealer this morning and even they couldn't get the key to work, but they needed a few hours to take off the door panel and inspect the cylinder, which I didn't have.
I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem? On the other hand, were you like me and never even tried the physical key?
Thanks!
