Ok I went to get some food to eat, and shut the car off in the drive-thru waiting for my food. It went to the off position fine and after I got my food I went home. I pull into the garage and turn the car off, but I cant get the damn key out. It is stuck in the ACC position and I don't know what to do now.

I took the car out around the block parked it again. Put it in nuetral, drive reverse, park, you name it. I turned the wheel and turned the key. I even reset the ECU, unplugged the battery, everything. I unhooked the battery for now since the car would still be on, but can someone please help in anyway possible. I need to get this out tonight so I can go to school tomorrow.

Sounds stupid, real stupid, but that car better be in park when you're trying this. Jiggle the steering column left and right while trying with the key. Then try jiggling the steering wheel left and right while trying with the key. Sometimes my key gets stuck and I jiggle the steering wheel and the key too and then the key comes out.

I did that. It doesnt go into the position that would require to jiggle the wheel though. It's stuck in the ACC postion. Thw wheel just turns like normal then. I dunno what to do. I have had it in every gear and tried to pull it out.
