Any advice for getting a key from the ignition in a saturn ion 2 2006? Tried the ignition switch button under the panel and spraying DW-40 in the key hole while the key was inserted but it won't budge to the off position. Even tried going to reverse to drive to park and will only go to the on/start position but the car won't crank and start up. Key is stuck in the on position and had to pull the ignition switch fuse to turn the car off. Thank you for your help.

If it wont turn off with the override on the bottom of the ignition housing?The tumblar door has cone off the ignition cylinder jambing up the cylinder in the housing.You will need a new cylinder and housing.
