Lost Keys
The first thing you need to do if you lose your car keys is to examine the area where you typically keep them. Some keys "drift" from their regular location and end up on the surface or under something. It is vital not to give up too quickly especially if the area has been searched several times. If you've done this and are still unable find your keys, call an expert locksmith in your area for assistance. The KeyLab tend to be less expensive than dealerships for replacement of car keys. The locksmith will need details about your vehicle, such as its VIN or key code number. This will allow them to identify your vehicle and give the correct key for it to use.
Broken Keys
When a key snaps off inside your lock with the stomach-shivering snap, feelings of dread and despair fall upon you. Take an exhale before you give up. It's not impossible. If you're lucky you might be able to pick up the broken piece with an pliers-needle pair. If not, tweezers could work fine too (just make sure you don't accidentally push the damaged edge further into the lock).
A great tip is to use a container of WD-40(r) Smart Straw with the smart nozzle and spray directly into the keyhole, allowing it to be lubricated it. This will help the damaged piece slide out and also loosen any binds that might be holding it back in position. Try sliding it up and back or in and out to free it from the thing that is holding it.
Other methods have been attempted by people, such as using the paperclip on both sides to hold the broken piece and lever it out. You could also try a drill bit, but make sure you drill the hole in the exposed side of the broken part of the key, not the lock itself.
Damaged Keys
Sometimes, what seems to be a major hardware issue is really just some grit and dust under the keys that stop it from functioning correctly. Most times, you can solve this issue yourself, without having to purchase replacement parts. All you need is a prying tool (something like a credit card works best however you could also use a flathead screwdriver in a pinch) and a container that can hold the pieces of the key as you take them out.
You'll also require the spudger tool to remove the stubborn dirt and grime from the key's grooves and a Q tip to clean the pad. If you're able to take off the key and its internal components, be sure to note their positions so that you are able to put them back together correctly in the future.
If the key is completely damaged in the ignition or fob, you will need to have a professional automotive locksmith recover it for you.
