They messed up the key lockset. Your cheapest bet is a locksmith. Alternative is a dealer.

Could be the ignition switch was damaged in failed attempt to possibly steal the car. U might just have to replace that switch.

My brand new key wont turn the ignition.

Go to the dealer any GM dealer, give them the VIN number and they will cut you a key to that vehicle. If the ignition has been replaced with one different to the OEM, you may have to replace the whole ignition switch.

2004 chevy Tahoe Z71 won't start. Vehicle is in park, lights come on and don't dim when the key is turned. Also when the key is turned there is no clicking and the started doesn't engage

Check to see if the security light is flashing. If it is turn the ignition on, but don't try to start it. let it set for ten minutes, do this three times with out taking the key out of the ignition. After the third time your vehicle should start. If not let me know and we can go from there.

2003 chevy tahoe with key stuck in ignition. vehicle previously broken into and stolen with scewdriver to ignition. ignition replaced. key now stuck and cannot turn vehcile off. can shift to driver,...

I have towed several of these with same problem. Sounds like to me it needs to go back in for the ignition switch again. Unless it's not going into park. If it's not going into park it would be a shift linkage issue and needs to be adjusted. Chris J.C. Towing & Recovery

Change starter on 2002 tahoe now motor wont start

If you had battery unhooked and assuming that it is turning over try this Put your key in turn it on dont start wait 10 mins remove key wait 10 seconds repeat this a total of 3 times. If that dont work try a different key do the same thing. This relearns your key to the ignition it started with Gm cars and trucks from 1999 to to 2006. It is a big problem but there is no recall that I know of. If that dont work a dealer needs to probably replace and reprogram your ignition switch and keys
