Ok, whenyou put the car in park. You cant remove key from steering colum.Any ideas?

 

There's plenty of threads about this. Do a search at the top of the page and you'll find LOTS of helpful info!

 

Hey thank you, that was very useful.

 

yep, use terms like ignition and stuck and you will find all you need to know

 

The search will get you the specifics, but this is usually a shifter issue I believe.

 

Yes, something in the shifter was replaced on mine when it happened.

 

Using those terms you will find the shifter threads as well

 

Yo Tracy - get the key out? What was the outcome?

 

Tracy,

There is a small compartment under the column that you can open, usually with a pocket screw driver or anything small and flat. There is a release for the key inside the opening. You will need to press on it.

Also, make sure your shifter button popped out when you put it into park. If not, give the shifter handle a couple of raps with your hand. It might release it.

If it is the shifter there are no parts to replace inside it. You can remove the shifter plate and inside you will see that the plunger is either stuck or popped to the side. Reseat it and clean out whatever soda/liquid or what have you that probably spilled inside of it, causing the problem.

If none of this is helps, you may need a shifter assembly or possible ignition lock cylinder.

 

Brad! Hey!
