Mobile Automotive Locksmith Service: More Than Car Keys
Locksmith LS provides mobile automotive locksmith service throughout Portland, Maine and Southern Maine. While many customers call us for lost car keys, spare keys, key fobs, and smart key programming, we also help with common automotive lock and ignition failures.
Modern vehicles can have problems with worn ignitions, stuck keys, steering lock failures, immobilizer issues, and electronic ignition systems. In many cases, these problems do not require replacing every part at the dealership. Locksmith LS can inspect the problem and provide repair or replacement options when available.
Ignition Failure and Ignition Rebuild Service
A worn or failing ignition can cause the key to stick, stop turning, turn loosely, or fail to start the vehicle. In some cases, the ignition cylinder can be rebuilt instead of fully replaced.
Locksmith LS carries ignition repair kits for many makes and models, allowing us to rebuild many ignition cylinders and help customers save time, towing, and unnecessary downtime.
Common symptoms of ignition failure include:
Key will not turn
Key gets stuck in the ignition
Key turns but vehicle does not start
Ignition feels loose or worn
Key is difficult to insert or remove
Vehicle will not shut off normally
Ignition gets stuck in the run position
This issue is commonly seen on many Honda models from the late 1990s through newer model years, as well as other makes and models.
Steering Lock Failure Repair and Replacement
Some vehicles use an electronic steering lock system as part of the anti-theft and ignition system. When the steering lock fails, the vehicle may not turn on, may not recognize the key, or may become stuck in a no-start condition.
Locksmith LS provides steering lock repair or replacement options for many makes and models. When available, this can help reduce downtime and provide a more convenient solution compared to towing the vehicle to a dealership.
Common symptoms of steering lock failure include:
Vehicle will not turn on
Key is recognized but ignition will not activate
Push-to-start vehicle will not start
Steering lock warning message
Ignition stuck in the run position
Unable to turn the vehicle off
Unable to turn the vehicle on
No crank or no start caused by steering lock failure
Steering lock issues are commonly seen on certain Volkswagen, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz models, especially vehicles from the early 2000s through the late 2010s.
