1. Sometimes when I start my car, the lights will not turn on and I cannot put the car into reverse. If I turn the key back just a little bit, it solves the problem.

2. When I turn my car off and take the key out, sometimes the doors won't lock almost like the car thinks the key is still in the ignition but it is not. If I put the key back in and jiggle it around and then turn it off, it solves the problem.

3. Car shakes sometimes at startup and is slow to start almost like it won't start sometimes. Just replaced spark plugs and oil change

Pelase help!!! What sould I do? Thanks
