At first the key would not come out of the ignition and now I am having trouble with the key either going into the ignition or coming out of the ignition. With all of the lives that have been lost due to the ignition problems in other vehicle's, this has concerned me greatly. Please respond quickly.

Not even a full month after purchasing a 2006 Suzuki Forenza sedan, the car doesn't start after sitting just overnight for the last two weeks that I've owned it. When I called keystone motors in montgomerville, pa, the manager was smug and unprofessional. And even though they are a J.D. powers associate winner, he said he didn't care about J.D. powers. They are going to look at the car, but I told them if just one more thing goes wrong, I will be trading for a car that runs.
