Some customers may comment that they are unable to remove the ignition key from the ignition cylinder.The shifter boot may be caught/trapped in the shifter assembly mechanism.

Inspect the shifter boot for being caught/trapped in the shifter assembly.
• If the shifter boot is NOT caught/trapped in the shift assembly, refer to Ignition Key Cannot Be Removed from the Ignition Lock Cylinder in SI.

• If the shifter boot IS caught/trapped in the shifter assembly, continue with the next step.

Important:

• DO NOT replace the complete shifter assembly for this condition.

• ONLY replace the shifter boot/handle if damaged by shifter assembly.


Reposition the shifter boot so that it is not caught/trapped in the shifter assembly.
if this does not work please post back and I will help to figure it out.
