Key stuck in ignition
 
Any help appreciate!

When parking my car and turning it off, I can't remove my key from the ignition. Everything I have found so far references a relay between the shifter and the ignition. :confused: So if this relay is bad the signal set from the shifter to the ignition signaling that the car is in park is not happening, thus I can't fully turn my key to remove.

In the mean time my solution has been to remove the ignition fuse, then I can remove the key. Problem is the fuse is needed to start the car. So I put it back in. Then the next time I need to remove the key, I am faced with the same issue.

Basically, I am looking for some feedback to ensure, I wont get swindled at the dealership. I

Also, if this is the problem I believe I need a professional to ensure I don't mistakenly deploy my airbag. :(

Thanks!

Sounds like a stuck relay that needs to be replaced.
