My key gets stuck!
Every once in awhile my key gets stuck in the ignition after driving for some reason. The only way you can usually get it out is by driving somemore and it may come out. I would say about 25% of the times I try and get it out , it is stuck.
Also something even more weird that has happened about 5 times, is the key won't go in the ignition until I put the car in nuetral and rol it a few feet. Then it usaully goes in fine!!!
Is that not weird?

The ignition tumbler may be pooched...... but you should go to the dealership and get them to recut your key. It worked for me....the key wouldn't work sometimes in the trunk.
"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."

my G/F's 92 Civic does the same thing - is yours an auto? I have a feeling that the position indicator switch in her car isn't "telling" the lock to let go.. more investigation is required tho.

I have too much respect for the idea of God to make it responsible for such an absurd world.

It's not like it needs lube, 1/2 the time it comes out normally with no drag.
And I'd use some dry graphite lock lube, otherwise you end up with a greasy key all the time.
