This is an informative video on issues with your ignition switch. If you have to push all the way in and twist while pushing watch this video to fix it.
I just did this on my car. You are a LIFE SAVER. I feel like I can conquer the damn world. I'm not one to do anything like this but I felt empowered when I saw you do it with nails on!

I did the push-in until I didn't work anymore. Changed the ignition switch (yes, I did) but no fix. Saw this video, popped out the cylinder -thing, tapes the end, VOILA!! It worked. On my way to work. Praise God and thank you, lady,for this video.

My car hasn't started this easily in over a year I tried the ignition switch it didn't help at all returned it tried this and had instant success. Hardest part was getting the key to release but once that came out everything went smooth. Thank you so much!

I'd come across another video before this one that involved splicing wires on the opposite side of the column. I'm going to try your solution first and I'll let you know how it turns out. Okay, so the next day I tried it, and sure enough it worked perfectly! I did have to wipe off a little bit of grease from the cylinder but no big deal. I also realized that I did not have to remove the bottom covering of the steering column. Thank you so much.

I did repair trick with tape that you suggested and it works great. And it took maybe 20 minutes from start to finish. Thanks so much for solution.

Thank you! Worked like a charm. This is definitely a temporary solution though. I did some more research and it seems to be the key cylinder pin that gets worn out (I was worried that it was the end that it gets inserted into). I have ordered a new cylinder and will replace it. This fix buys me time and peace of mind (it is my daughetr's car).

I had this problem, I'd seen vids about it before but today it finally just wouldn't work anymore and I had to try it. First time The key wouldn't turn and I took it back out and called my mechanic for a suggestion but he apparently didn't understand what I was doing because he said it wouldn't ork. I concluded maybe i had too much extra tape so I took that off and replaced it with 2 narrow pre-cut strips. Cranked right up. I'm the least mechanical gal you'd ever meet s I'll state the cliche, if I can do it you can. BUT I'll add one tip: you don't actually need the bottom shell of the steering column to come off. I did mine by only removing the top.

Unfortunately it's a common problem on Ford's, failed ignition switch cylinder. I contacted Ford directly to see about recalls but there was no recall on my year of the Ford Escape's. I called the National Highway for Safety and reported my issue with them so they can document it for Ford to be aware, start recalling and fix our ignition switch cylinders.
