Hi, my name is Devin. I am an auto repair expert with the Car Genius team here at RepairPal. I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with your vehicle. When the key fob gets stuck in the slot of your LR2, and the car won't start, it may indicate a problem with the key slot or the fob itself. Try pulling the key fob out while gently wiggling it, as the release springs could be getting weak. Other people with similar concerns have inserted the key upside down to prevent it from getting stuck. For the starting issue, you may have a weak key fob battery or a 12v car battery. Because this could leave you stranded and unable to start the car, it is a good idea to get the issue diagnosed soon. If you need more advice, have any other questions about your vehicle, or would like to get connected to a RepairPal Certified shop near you, we have you covered. Give us a call at 877-913-1554, and we will happily help you out!
