Ignition switch on these cars (my '98 was the same way) are known to be trouble spots. With your wife saying she can turn it back a bit and it works was a dead give-away to me. Either live with it for now or get the tumbler section of the ignitino switch changed. Being a '99 there may even have to be some software download for new parts to be "married to the car." The circular key-insert is also a part of the car's immobilizer, so I suspect it really is this part that's giving you fits. Could have jarred something in the accident.
