Not to be sorry.
That is right on topic.
That is how it starts.
Sometimes you can't get the key out either.
But eventually it just does not want to turn.
For awhile it helps to rap on the key.
Finally you have to tow it and have the ingnition cylinder replaced, about every year.
Until you just give up and leave the tumbler out of the last cylinder.

It happend to me too. I don't know what it is. The key gets stuck for some reason, then the ignition switch won't turn for the car to start. Does anyone know whats wrong?
