| Description of the problem | After driving the car and placing it in "park", the key could not be extracted from the ignition. Putting the car into different gears was of no help, sometimes able to restart the car and then extract the key. Has happened multiple times in past month. Luckily, by shifting gears or straightening out the wheel, or driving a bit more i was able to remove key. By slowly removing key. I have been able to remove key. However, afraid that one time key wont be removed using these methods. |
