I ordered a key from my dealership, it would open the door but won't
start the ignition also won't let me change the gear. I'm thinking of
dissabling the security device  that they say has a magnet that would
identify only my original key. I parked in a alternate parking and I
already receive two
ticket for not moving it. Need help ASAP
Any advice?

Call the dealership and yell.  You don't have the correct key.

How much did the key cost? If it was the correct key for the ignition,
it has RFID embedded in the plastic end and generally costs $75. These
keys are programmed to only start the car they were meant for.If you
got a key for $3, all it would do is open the door for you.

I get those keys reproduced at a lock shop all the time for less than $20.

If the pellet is not the right one (and it is easy to check them), of course
the key wont work in the ignition.

It is fairly easy to bypass the security system permanently, or you can
repair if you like.
