    Could be that the ignition cylinder needs to be replaced. Given that it's a 16 year old vehicle, that seems a distinct possibility. Have you tried things like trying to move the steering wheel back and forth while trying to insert the key?

    I'm a retired locksmith and it's possibly obstructed! Did it happen suddenly?
