Lost Keys
The first thing you should do if you've lost the car key is to check the location where you normally keep the keys. Some keys "drift" from their usual place of storage and end up on the floor or underneath something. It is important to not give up too soon especially if the location has been searched multiple times. If you have done this but are still unable to locate your keys, you can contact a local locksmith for assistance. Using a locksmith is often cheaper than going to the dealership to purchase replacement car keys. The locksmith will require information about your car, such as its VIN or key code number. This information will allow the locksmith to identify your vehicle and provide you with the correct key for starting it.

But before you give up take a deep breath and keep in mind that it's not impossible to retrieve your key. If you're lucky, there may still be enough of the broken piece sticking out to be able to grab it with needle nose pliers. If not, tweezers can be just as effective (just be careful not to accidentally push the broken edge farther into the lock).

This will allow the damaged piece slide off and also loosen any binds that might be holding it in position. You can try to wiggle it up and down or in and out to release it from the thing that is holding it.
