Add me to the list.. It hit me about a year ago.

b2000 Zx3. At the time had probably 115k miles on it. It started sticking on occaision, but after wiggling it, I could usually get it to turn.. Then one day, i just couldn't get it to turn no matter what.

I called AAA. When the driver got here, he said that it had happened to most of their foci as well (the AAA office around here uses foci for student driving courses). He stuck the key in and tapped it with a wrench a few times, and it magically turned again.

I drove it to the dealer to get the iginition replaced. It cost 250$-ish, i don't remember exactly. It's worked perfectly ever since.
