When we shut off the car, sometimes we cannot remove the key
We need to restart the car and shift out of park and we may have to do this several times. It seems to happen more often and is more dificult to fix.

The column will probably need to come apart to see what isnt working properly. Might be the tumbler or the rack assembly or the shifter not going all the way into park. This soundslike of those deals unfortunatly that it will need to be taken apart to see
