Dude tell your dealer to fuck off and re-key the ignition under
warranty, ASAP!

The EXACT SAME THING happened to my car and several others. It will
eventually fail and leave you walking. I hope you are parked in a "nice"
neigborhood when it happens. 

I don't want to scare you but I am speaking from experience. It happened
to my '95 GLX and I eventually had to have the WHOLE CAR including the
seats re-keyed. What a pain in the ass! It was all under waranty.
Covered. 
	
If you don't want the hassle just have him re-key the ignition only and
then use your original key for the doors etc. BE SURE THEY ORDER THE
RIGHT PART! My dealer accidentally installed a passat ignition tumbler
in my GLX and when I went to pick it up they drove up and I turned it
off and on again and it wouldnt turn off a second time! It was stuck
ON!!!!...the engine running!!!!!!

you are not alone.
