• What Do I Do If The Key For My Chevy Cruze Is Stuck In The Ignition?

Please help! I’ve been sitting in my driveway for an hour! I don’t understand what’s going on! I can get my car key out of the ignition for my Chevy Cruze. I haven’t had any car trouble or anything. Everything seemed normal. But when I went to remove my key, it was just stuck. What should I do if my Chevy Cruze key is stuck in the ignition?

Oh no—I’m so sorry to hear that the key for your Chevy Cruze is stuck in the ignition! That can be very frustrating. It could be caused by a number of things from a bent/damaged key to a steering lock. Fortunately, there are some things you can try that might help get it unstuck.

While not exactly common, this issue does happen from time to time. There are several issues that could result in the key for your [Chevy[(https://getjerry.com/car-insurance/chevrolet-insurance-cost) being stuck in the ignition. Possible causes include:

• Parking lock
• Steering lock
• Dead/dying battery
• Bent, damaged, or dirty key

The first thing you should do is make sure that your car is in park. Shift to drive and then back to park, just to be sure. If the key is still stuck after that, double-check that your battery has a charge. If your battery has too low a voltage, it could cause the key to become stuck.

After that, you can try gently wiggling the steering wheel back and forth to work some “give” into it. If the key is stuck due to the steering lock being on, this should get it loose.

If none of that has helped, try gently working the key back and forth to get it loose. Make sure not to force it, or you might make things worse. Just slowly move the key back and forth. If there is dirt or debris in the ignition, this should help loosen it.

Having your key get stuck in the ignition can be very aggravating. Fortunately, finding the right car insurance doesn’t have to be! Download the free insurance comparison app Jerry to find the best coverage for the lowest rates!

easiest way that I have found this particular tool that i'ma show you is

fairly inexpensive it can be bought online in fact I will put a link down

below in the video description where you can find it this is a 2015 Dodge Ram

1500 pickup and it's got the vertical locks here and I'm gonna use this airbag

this particular airbag that's made by access tools they could be found online

you know various places and they just get a little bit started there and I'm

gonna throw another one in there just for good measure and this is basically

the same thing it's just a hair bigger get it in there and if you don't have

those air bags you can use these wedges plastic wedges they're sold in various

places all over the internet there's another one here that's this one this

particular one is called a one-hand Jack anyway you could use I mean if you're

working on a vehicle that you don't care about you could use a wedge-shaped piece

Opening the Chevrolet Cruze trunk with the key fob is simple -- You'll just need to press the trunk button twice in rapid succession. However, if You don't have access to the key fob, there are still other ways to open the trunk. Not all Cruze models are equipped with a trunk button on the lower left side of the dashboard. If Yours is, then the process is simple. However, if it's not, You'll have to dig a little deeper. Directly above the rear license plate, You'll find a small button. It's somewhat hidden, but simple to find if You know where to look. If the doors are unlocked, this button will serve as a trunk release so You can access the trunk without Your key.
