Key won't come out ignition revisited...

I've posted up a post about not being able to get the key out of the ignition problem before...
It's not like I don't know how to get the key out of the ignition...
the push & Pull.. It usually comes out fine..
but today.. I had to restart the car 5times to get it out.. It pisses me off...
is this a gear problem? not getting into park or something?

Only problem is I can't seem to duplicate the problem when I go to the dealer..
what should I do?

please let me know..

Thanks..

Is your steering wheel turned to one side and feel like it's locked or anything? Cuz this is the only thing I can think of as to why your key is so hard to take out. Is it hard to put in the key at the beginning too?

Anyways, before it gets stuck for good, take it to your dealer and get it checked out.

Yeah, happens to me once in while. Usually because the steering wheel is turned all the way to one way. If the steering wheel is locked, then stomp on the brake and it should pop right out.
