Ok so I go to start my car up this morning and the key won't turn at all. It goes in the ignition fine but it won't turn. So now I can't start my car. I'm thinking maybe I need to get a new set of keys cut, had the same keys since I got it in the summer of '00. I'm hoping thats it and theres not some ignition problems of some sort??

I wish this was the case, but I can turn my wheel to the left and right, so I don't think its that. It does turn kinda stiff, like you gotta put some muscle into it to turn the wheel.

It may be frozen, happened to me in my Avenger since the doors had frameless windows, air would get in a lot easier and it would freeze, god do i love not having that problem anymore =)

Same thing happend to me . They had to replace the ignition cylinder , which from what I was told , is something that usually has to be done by the dealer because it has some coding to it or crap like that . All I know is I called a bunch or local garages and none of them wanted to mess with it . Ended up costing me without including the tow 400 bucks . Hope you make out better .
