how to remove key stuck in ignition switch in Chevy colbalt
Yes, the ignition switch must be in the ignition position -not- the accessory position.
the tumblers in your key switch are failing replace them before long
With the key stuck in the accessory position the steering wheel is locked and the gearshift is locked in the park position. Perhaps you should consider having a locksmith change the key cylinder where it is, or else have it towed to the garage.
Hey Albert==It is probably in the lock cylinder. You may have to replace it. Get a manual on your car to find out the procedure. Goodluck Joe

In my case it was the ignition switch itself had overheated and seized up. Replace the switch (have to lower the column, disconnect the wiring plug from the switch, and remove/replace the switch.) Clean all connections to the switch, make sure they're connected solidly and not heating up again.
It is false that the stat ignition switch position only activates the starter motor.
