Have you tried jiggling the steering wheel as you try and turn the key? If that doesn’t work then most likely the lock went bad and will need replaced and the security system reset.
Ignition switches don't last forever, and yours lasted sixteen years. Have it replaced.
If you have a spare key, try using that one. Maybe the key you use everyday is worn out. You can also try a lubricant in the key hole like Lock Eeze (probably misspelled). It's a dry graphite lubricant made especially for lock cylinders. Hope that helps! Jim
