Need urgent help

My w204 yr 2008 failed me last night.

My car was parked for 2 hours during my appointment and when I came back to my ride,

I managed to unlock the car doors using my remote

But when I insert my key into the ignition only the circular display lit up

When i tried to turn the key, it had no response at all

My gear was not able to be shifted from P.

I called for help and the workshop sent their mechanics to my car but the mechanic

Said that my battery is still very strong, he said something is wrong with the key sensor in the ignition.

I will be going back to my car with my spare keys tomorrow morning to try my luck (praying hard it would work)

Meanwhile anyone has any advise on what I should or can do now? Or anyone here who has previously encountered this befor?

Since we are at this. My mechanic mentioned about this issue when I went to change some parts. Can I check with bros here if C & C will rectify this problem foc after the warranty period or only within warranty period. Thanks!

[Barney]

err i highly doubt they will rectify it FOC after the warranty period. i might be wrong though.

Just sent in car at Pandan, checked with SA.

Bad news : It will only be rectifed when car is still UNDER WARRANTY!

Not so bad news : It cost $1,xxx to rectify at C & C!
