Answer
The key should come out if you are truly in the "lock" positon of the ignition switch. If it won't then it may be that you aren't in true lock position. Did you follow any instructions given about the shift interlock cable that is connected between the shifter and the key lock? It is a detailed process and also maybe an adjustment is needed. I can try to copy the pages, from an '06 manual on CD, to you by email but this is a new technique that I am going to try for the first time so may not be successful. In the meantime, try verifying that the switch is in the 'lock' position. Send me a 'private' follow-up telling me an email address and then I can try the copy process.
