First try with the spare (newer) key . If the key still comes out too soon, then the tumbler is worn. No real problem

A lot of times you need to rotate the steering wheel a little while trying to turn the key to release the lock. This should then allow you to turn the key in the ignition. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: key stuck in ignition and car won't start

I assume you have tried jiggling the steering wheel to free up the interlock. If all else fails you will have to remove the key cylinder and replace it.

2001 honda crv I'm driving but can't take key out of ignition in Park could drive but key is stuck won't come out

Sounds like you need a new ignition. If its really stuck you will have to get a replacement key and a new ignition. Usually not to expensive and any competant shop can swap it for you. You also might want to check the neutral safety switch. That is the only switch that has to do with your drive park position.

My 2003 sonota's ignition will not turn it is as if it is locked.

Try turning the steering wheel to one side a little when turning the ignition. The locking mechanism for the key tumbler will not turn if there is eccessive force on it. This can happen if you hit a curb while parking and turning off the car, or if the wheels are turned when shutting of the vehicle. My daughter had the same problem after parking and had to call me to ask me what to do. If that doesn't work there is something wrong with the key tumbler locking mechanism.
