On-Site Ignition & Lock Repair Service

Lock and ignition problems don't always announce themselves before they strand you. A worn ignition barrel can go from stiff to completely seized. A damaged door lock can leave you locked out without warning. Titan diagnoses and repairs these on-site, wherever your vehicle is.

What We Repair & Replace

  • Ignition barrel replacement — worn, seized, or damaged ignition cylinders replaced and re-keyed to your existing key
  • Door lock repair — damaged or broken door lock mechanisms repaired or replaced
  • Broken flip key repair — snapped flip key blade re-cut and housing replaced
  • Transponder shell replacement — key fob housing replaced while keeping your programmed chip
  • Lock recoding — recode locks to match new or existing keys

Why Not Just Replace the Whole Ignition?

In most cases we can repair or rebuild your existing ignition barrel rather than replacing it entirely — which keeps costs down and means you keep your existing key without reprogramming. We'll tell you honestly which option is right for your situation.

Common Signs You Need Ignition Work

If you're experiencing any of the following, call us before it becomes an emergency: key feels stiff or catches when turning, ignition requires multiple attempts, steering wheel lock engaging when it shouldn't, key won't come out of the ignition after turning off, or ignition feels loose or rattles.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you replace an ignition barrel without replacing the whole ignition?

Yes — in most cases we can replace just the barrel and re-key it to match your existing key. This is usually more cost-effective than a full ignition replacement.

My key won't turn in the ignition — can you fix it today?

In most cases yes. Call us and describe the issue — we'll tell you over the phone whether it's a likely ignition fault or something else, and give you a quote before coming out.

Can you fix a broken flip key the same day?

Yes. We carry a range of flip key housings and can re-cut the blade and replace the housing on-site in most cases.

How long does an ignition repair take?

Typically 1–2 hours depending on the make and model and the extent of the damage. We'll give you a more accurate estimate after diagnosing over the phone.
