What Is Broken Key Extraction in Vehicles?
Broken Key Extraction refers to the safe removal of a snapped or jammed key fragment from a lock or ignition. Car keys can break due to metal fatigue, excessive force, worn-out cuts, or misalignment in the ignition or lock cylinder.
Common causes include:
- Forcing a bent or worn key into the ignition
- Attempting to turn a frozen or jammed lock
- Using the wrong key in a vehicle door
- Age-related wear or corrosion in lock mechanisms
Instead of attempting a DIY removal, which often causes further damage, call a trained automotive locksmith to perform the extraction professionally and restore full access and usability.
