I can't get the ignition key out of the ignition cylinder. The car is in park. The brake is held down with pressure. I have tried wiggling, twisting, shaking just about everything. Eventually, it will slide out as normal. For the next few insert, start, and remove key - it works fine. Then for some unknown reason, it hangs again. It seems to fail at the last notch, when key is turned counter-clockwise for normal extraction.
I will go try & locate the cable linkage from the automatic shifter and see if there is an adjustment.
Are there any other things that I can check?
I'm pretty sure the key is good, as we just paid Chrysler $30 to cut a new one from the VIN.
What is the procedure for removing the key cylinder from the steering column? Does it pop out, or do you need to remove the steering wheel plastic, etc?
Possible recall for this problem on a 2003 Sebring LX ?
Thanks, Gene
