Starter/Ignition won't turn with key in it...?
 
Ever since I bought my crossfire, I had to sort of "Jiggle" the key back and forth and turn the steering wheel slightly, left to right.

Well the other day I go to work, well... TRY to get to work.. and the ignition WILL NOT turn.

Any idea how much it is to replace it? I refuse to call my local dealer, I will not do business with them anymore (Several unrelated problems with them.)

I'd like to purchase maybe online, and install myself. Anyone had similar issues?
