The key from the locksmith may fit into the ignition, but it's not programmed for your car....You will have to get a Chrysler Dealer to help you out here. What happened to the other set of keys (never had them to being with??)
Does the new key have a microchip? If so put it in the ignition and press the lock button on the remote and then the unlock. that should program the remote. If not I suggest you go to http://needswings.com/ and order one that comes programed for your security system so the car can start. The ring around the ignition is a code reader and if it can't read a code you can't start the car

For any key programing and replacement of keys you must consult to Bolingbrook locksmith service.These guys are awesome and provide best service of any type of locksmithing problems.
Order a replacement key from the Needswings. They will have it programmed to your VIN# http://needswings.com/key-oem-replacement
The type of key you are looking for is referred to as a "chip" key. It has a microchip in it which means that anyone who does not have the correct chip in the key or a chip at all, will not be able to start your car normally. Since I just recently purchased a Crossfire, you can find the correct replacement on the site keylessride.com. It will set you back about $180, but you will be able to start your car once you receive the key from them and get it programmed to your car at the dealership.
