Yes! If you take an uncoded key (like an emergency door key) and try to start the car, the ignition system will disable itself. This is why locksmiths generally will not cut a spare key for you, and if they are willing to cut one, some will make you sign a waiver that says you will not place the key in the ignition to avoid getting sued later.

A dealer can unlock the system for you.

There is also a procedure for coding a new key to your ignition system. Again, see the dealer.

What would cause a cylinder misfire and is it serious?

Misfires can be caused by many things. The most common causes are ignition system faults, fuel metering problems, and mechanical engine problems. A misfire caused by an ignition system fault or an overly rich fuel condition can lead to severe engine damage (requiring rebuild or replacement of the engine) as well as (less costly) damage to oxygen sensors, catalytic converters, exhaust system components, and carpeting. Misfires, regardless of cause, can damage automatic transmissions and powertrain mounts.
