MY KEY IS ATTACHED TO MY CAR REMOTE. WHEN I TURN OFF THE IGNITION AFTER DRIVING, THE KEY WOULD NOT COME OUT. I PULLED ON THE REMOTE AND IT CAME OFF, BUT THE KEY IS STUCK IN THE IGNITION. WHAT IS WRONG AND HOW DO I GET IT OUT

Sounds like a stuck tumbler in the key switch. I would try spraying silicone along side the key as you wiggle it. Then tap the end of the key "gently" with a plastic hammer as you turn and pull on the key.
