    Today I noticed that my ignition key was a little warm after removing it from the ignition.
    I don't know if it was because the heat here is so hot and and the A/C doesn't get ait around the key?

    Anyone else ever notice this with their key?

    It's was 95 here today. With heat index of 105.
    Maybe the steering/ignition just gets that warm from the sun?

    Hot day with the sun baking the car, makes all the metal parts hot, transfers to your key.
    Nothing to worry about.
