2009 Ford Escape Ignition switch

2009 Ford Escape V6, When I turn Key to start no crank. Note: Everything works in the car, All light are in good order, The only problem is when I turn the key to start position, nothing happen, no crank no start. once an a while after 7 to 10 times might start. I have a new key and I tried it and it also failed. The only time it start every time is when I push the key unit inward and turn the key at the same time to start position, it start no problem. My question is, what is happening ( or creating) when I push the key unit head in that make the car to start? am I improving grounding by pushing the key inward? if so how can it be fixed? Thanks in advance Censu.

I had this happen with a Mazda 6 I used to have. It took the dealer over a week to figure it out, but it turned out to be the throttle body.

I think you need a new ignition switch (and key)
