| Description of the problem | Key gets stuck in vehicle ignition when the vehicle is placed into park. Some sort of component that tells the car it is parked is malfunctioning. This does not happen every time but probably about 50% of the time. Placing the car into gear and then back into park eventually fixes the issue, but it often takes multiple attempts. This started happening after adjusting the steering wheel for another driver. It has subsequently been an issue. |
