Most cars have a steering wheel lock that is connected to the key--try wiggling the wheel back and forth while turning the key all the way back to 'off' and pulling it ou. Also, some cars (Nissans, for sure) have a button near the key that you need to push in while you pull the key out. If the car is an automatic, is it in Park? I don't think you can pull the key out when it is in Park, so if triedd my first two ideas, and the shifter is in Park, then perhaps something is wrong with the transmission. ...like it won't let you put it in Park. I'm not sure why that would be. (I like standard transmissions.)
Its a 94 Probe and my son stuck the key in tonight and the car wont turn on
If you look on the steering column,right under the key,you should find a hole.If you stick small tool in there,you will find release button.Push your key should turn off and come out.
is it a ford? push the key in further and then turn it
I have the same problem today, you can hear the solenoid when you turn the key but nothing, please help!!
The tumblers in the key cylinder have most likely become stuck in the wrong position and you will have to replace the ignition key cylinder.

The steering wheel may be preventing it from disengaging. Turn the wheel a bit and try again.
Well, it sounds like the chip that is in your key may have broke or got stuck on a part of the ignition. I had that problem. This happened not long after I had had to have the ignition replaced?!?
Turn the wheel and then try to start it with the key.
A key will not be released if it is not in the OFF position only. If it is any other position, the key sticks.
