Check your fuse box for broken fuses. Otherwise, disconnect your negative battery terminal for maybe thirty minutes, reconnect and see if warning lights stay on. It could also be a pre-set maintenance reminder to force consumers to get dealer service which would be 'reset' by disconnecting a relay.

1. Check n clean battery cables with a battery brush. Look at both ends, if able.
2. Check battery acid level. Add if needed, get a jump.
3. All OK? Then get a battery load-test done free at a parts store.

18 degrees in September? Isn't that Celsius?

It could be a bad ignition key assembly. The key assembly has a unit attached to it to read the Security code in the key and sometimes when these start to go bad they overheat bad. Go have it checked out by your mechanic.

Make sure your steering wheel isn't locked. Sometimes a key won't turn until you jiggle the wheel while trying to turn the key.

that is strange that the key will not release -- there is nothing electrical about the key being held in place. I would recommend trying to move the steering wheel back and forth as you try and turn the key/ignition back and forth and then back to off and try and get the key out then. if this does not do it then it sounds like something has gone wrong in the ignition switch itself and I would recommend jump starting the car and driving it down to your local automotive locksmith and see if they can get the key to release. the ignition might need to be re-pined and a locksmith can do this for you and get your key working good again.
hope it all works out,

your switch is probably bad.. replace the ignition key and cylinder lock.
