Sounds like your ignition switch is going bad or the ignition slide mech attached to the steering column (if applicable) is out of adjustment or in need of replacement.

If so the airbag light stays on During this malfunction? Till you cycle the key. If so the body control module is on the way out. The bcm runs everything in the car. If no factory security. Then the ignition may very well be toast.
