Find an independant shop to do the work. Much less then going to the dealership.

Have you tried to jump it? If not call roadside it's free Usually the key wont turn if it's the EIS and starting nov10th dealers are not allowed to sell the EIS's directly to shops or customers it needs to be installed at a dealer and they are closer to 500.
