Ignition Repair in Asheville, NC

Stuck key, steering wheel locked, or a car that just won’t start? Asheville Locksmith Now brings mobile ignition repair and broken key extraction anywhere in Asheville and the surrounding WNC area—so you don’t have to tow your vehicle to the dealer.

Mobile Ignition Repair & Replacement

When your ignition stops cooperating, it can strand you at home, at work, or in a parking lot on Merrimon or Hendersonville Road. Our mobile auto locksmith van comes to you with the tools and parts needed to:

Diagnose common ignition problems
Repair worn or sticking ignitions
Replace damaged ignition cylinders when needed
Re-key new ignitions to match your existing car keys (when hardware allows)

We focus on safe, professional work, so you’re not left with a steering column full of broken parts or loose wiring.

Broken Key Extraction Without Extra Damage

A broken key in the ignition can go from annoying to expensive if it’s handled the wrong way. Instead of forcing it or trying random tools, call us:

We carefully remove broken key pieces from ignitions
We avoid damage to the wafers and cylinder whenever possible
We can cut and program a replacement key on-site after extraction

If a previous attempt has already damaged the ignition, we’ll walk you through the best repair or replacement option before we start.

Ignition Problems We Fix

Common issues we see around Asheville include:

Key won’t turn in the ignition
Ignition turns but the car won’t start
Key only works if you “wiggle” the wheel or key just right
Stuck, frozen, or extremely stiff ignition
Key broke off in the ignition
Ignition was punched or damaged in a theft attempt

If it turns, clicks, or locks, there’s a good chance we’ve seen it before and can fix it.

Ignition Repair FAQs

How do I know if I need ignition repair or just a new key?

Sometimes a worn key is the problem; other times it’s the ignition itself. We can test your key and inspect the cylinder on-site, then tell you which repair makes the most sense before you spend money.

Can you repair my ignition the same day?

In many cases, yes. If we have the right parts on the truck, we can repair or replace the ignition the same visit. If special parts are needed, we’ll explain the timeline and options.

Is ignition repair cheaper than going to the dealer?

Very often. You avoid towing charges, long waits, and dealership labor rates. We’ll give you an honest estimate up front so you can compare.

Will my existing car key still work after you replace the ignition?

When hardware allows, we can re-key the new ignition to match your existing key, so you don’t have to carry multiple keys for doors and ignition. If that’s not possible on your vehicle, we’ll explain your options first.
