Ignition Switch - Difficulty in turning

I have a 2002 9-3SE with auto transmission with approx. 25,000 miles. I'm having problems with the ignition switch.
At times, I have a lot of difficulty turning the key to the "first" position. The key just doesn't budge. There is a lot of resistance. When I get the key into the "first" position, there is no problem going to the next position to start the car.
Removing the key is also a problem. When I need to remove the key, there is a lot of resistance going from the "first" position to the "off" position to remove the key.
I took the car to the dealer last month, and the told me they fixed the problem with some lubrication.
I searched "ignition switch" on this board but couldn't find anything too specific to my problem. I did find a post from Dean stating a problem with an ignition switch's lock cylinder and electrics, but there was no additional information to that.
Has anyone had similar problems?
Thanks in advance for the help.
