Question Key won't come out!! Help!!

Is anyone else having this problem?? A few times i have been out and i turn off the ignition the key won't come out, know matter what direction i turn my wheel. I just end of locking the door and open it with the keypad. Is there a recall on the ignition that anyone knows about or is my truck telling me i am in the wrong place and need to get out of there.

How 'bout taking it in to your local Ford dealer and have it fixed? That's what you have a warrranty for. Make sure that it is really in park when attempting to remove the key.

I've had my key stuck a few times, but after I take the truck out of park and then back in, it comes out for some reason

I oops'd by sticking a Chevy key in the ignition of my Ford and instantly realized the mistake.

But while pulling it out, I noticed that it had grabbed the key a bit.

Pulled the key out -- no problem (or so I thought).

Put the Ford key in and drove away.

Parked the car in the garage and forgot the incident.

Next morning, key would NOT go in.

Had to have the car dragged out of the garage and towed to the dealer -- who B&E'd the lock mechanism out ($150ish).

Apparently, one of the opposing tumbler gizzies got loose.

So...

...If you can get it to the dealer, save yourself the towing bill now.
