HI ~ I am original owner of car. Recently upon turning engine off, the key stays locked in position 1. Cannot turn key all the way counter-clockwise and remove key. Car IS in park, foot on brake. Can you advise?
Thanks!

Needs to be disassembled to see what is jamming it up. I dont suggest this as a DIY project due to the SRS (airbag). Take it to a shop and have it looked at, might just need a new tumbler or could be the ignition switch itself
