59K sounds like a lot of miles but there are lots of cars here with much more. Does kind of explain why it is selling for less than $9K though.
The stuck key is a common problem. I had it and many on the forum have too. It happened with less than 35k miles. As a matter of fact, there are very few crossfires in my town. When I had the key problem, the dealership had another crossfire with the same key problem. That is how common this issue is. It is caused by the steering wheel lock pin. Do a search in this forum and you will learn more about it.

The other common problem is the headliner falling down. If it hasn't fallen yet, it will!
