The metal flap on the driver's door handle where the key goes in no longer closes. What to do? 850

Hello All,

I found out what the problem was. There is a small metal spring that closes the flap on the keyhole in the driver's door that I described above. I took the key cylinder out of the door and brought it to a locksmith that specializes in car locks. He replaced the broken spring, with a Honda spring and now the door flap closes correctly. A common repair I was told.
