Dude! Just wiggle the shifter!

What is happening, is the little locking pawl in the transmission's starting to wear out. (The same thing happens on non-Saab cars, but on them you have to turn the steering wheel.) To unstick the key on a Saab, hold the key in one hand and the shifter in the other. Turn the key to the right and wiggle the shifter. When you get it just right, the key will turn.

The ignition switch will not turn at all What do you do?

Are you using an original key, or a replacement that has the proper security computer chip located in the fat plastic part of the key? If not, the car's security system will keep the ignition locked and will not allow you to turn the ignition switch. ALSO: some earlier models of Focus had ignition switches that were a problem. If you ARE using the correct key and can't turn the switch to start the car anymore, the ignition switch may have to be replaced.
