You'll probably need to call a locksmith or a local shop and have the lock cylinder replaced to get a key. Some locksmiths will come to your car, saving you the money of having it towed to a shop.

I too have had this problem. I usually turn the car off, and flip the key around. I think it has something to do with the computer chip that is embedded in the ignition key.
U need to clear the AC condensation drain, crawl under the car on the passenger side and near the base of the engine firewall u will find a drain pipe, (about 3/4") clear t and the water will stop going on the passenger floor.
the short answer is no, u need the original key to cut the correct new one with the correct value to signal the security system to let you start the car, u can have a key cut that will turn the ignition on but the car will not start. The dealer needs to do this for you, as a reprogram of the security system is needed.
did u get a key that was the proper code? these keys have a little piece of resistive wire embedded in the key, does the key u had made have that? if not it will not work, u can't just get a key cut, they have numbers to select the proper resistance value for the key to work with your security system.
