 The original manufactuer key fails to unlock the trunk of the car and door locks intermittently. i also have difficulty starting the vehicle with the key. this problem is not weather or accident related.

 Ignition key jams, will not turn to start engine, and can not be removed when engine is turned off. frequency of jamming increased until i switched to using the spare master key. it worked fine for a while and then the same problem occured. finally, i used the valet key and it has worked fine for nearly 2 years. when i recently went to the local toyota dealer to purchase 2 new keys, after nearly 2 hours i was advised that due to the age of the vehicle the new keys could not be programmed without the purchase and installation a new ignition modual (on-board computer) costing $1,812 including labor and 2 keys. toyota's customer experience office has refused any assistance.
