Question type: General

Just today, I could not turn the ignition key on my 2008 Sonata. I tried turning
the steering wheel to the right and left and at the same time, push on the brake
pedal. It's still not working. Then I release the release the shift lock. Put on
neutral and turn the steering wheel but it's still work. This is the first time it
happen to me. What's the problem?
