Default 2013 Suburban ignition sticking - several attempts to start

Hello, I just purchased a 2013 Suburban from my company.
I had actually been driving it for years before I bought it, and of course as soon as I bought it something has acted up, haha.
The key seems to stick a bit when I start it sometimes, and when it does, the vehicle won't start. It will turn to the start position, but stick a bit while turning to the start position.
Then, if I try again once or twice, it will not stick and will start right up.
Is this something that will get worse? Or is there anything I can do to help it stop sticking?
thanks!

It could be mechanical in the switch linkage or the switch itself hanging up. Dissection is needed to see what's acting up.
