Sounds like some of the mechanism inside may be busted up , You could remove the switch and see , A lock smith may get you a better price than the dealer , there is some kind of transponder along with the programed key so you may want to take it to the dealer

Possible ignition but could be a mechanical failure in locking mechanism which operates the electronic part.

Definitely sounds like the ignition switch. Looks like the lock cylinder is not involved with this. Unless the receiver for the transponder key is part of the ignition switch, no programming should be necessary. Hope that helps! Jim
