you needto have a key in the slot then look all arounf the outter edges of the finger grab points.You will see a pin it is very small.With the key in you depress the pin and turn the entire assembly.It will pull out when you feel the release. If you have lost they key then a lock smith will need to make you a temp and he will usually have a new one with him.I had it done five years ago and the cost was 65$

What are the notches in keys for?
It would be easier to draw the answer but I will try with words. Assuming you mean the notches on the top: Keyed locks use what are called tumblers. These are small bars that come down within the lock and keep the lock from turning. The tumblers fit through spaces of various heights such that, when the tumblers are all at the right height, the lock can be turned (unlocked). When you slide a key into the lock it pushes the tumblers up. If the key had not been cut (i.e. had no notches) then it would push all the tumblers to the same height, they would not match the spaces and the lock would not turn. The notches are cut into the key to match the heights at which the tumblers need to be in order to turn. I hope that makes sense. So when you pick a lock, you put in one tool that is strong and can make the turning motion and another tool to lift the tumblers up to their proper heights. A key with a cut much different than the lock will not slide into the lock because it jams against the tumblers (or stops due to the grooves in the side of the key being in the wrong place). The notches (I would say grooves) on the side, limit the number of keys that can be slid into any particular lock.
Was there a recall on the ignition of a 1999 Chrysler Sebring JXI convertible?
Don't know...but there are problems with the ignition lock tumblers wearing. Quick fix for a stuck key is to tap the lock while trying to turn the key. This will allow tumblers to fall into place so the key will turn. This fix will get you home, but not fix the problem. To fix permanently, disconnect power to car, remove dash trim below the steering wheel and remove enough screws to lift upper dash around steering wheel to expose key lock. Turn key to on position and depress tab in lock cylinder collar and pull lock cylinder and key out of car. Take lock cylinder to locksmith for new tumblers ( it cost me $12). Replace lock cylinder and put dash back together.
