i'm not sure what i'm gonna do about this..it seems really expensive to go to a locksmith or even a mechanic. the honda dealership service said 86 dollars just for a diagnostic, most locksmiths around here seem to be charging 100+ just to remove the key.

did you try slamming the shifter into park? did you push in the key before rotating and pulling it out?

yeah, tried slamming it. yeah i push in the key before rotating, thats the only way to take it out normally, id unno. other people have treid and its stuck for them too
 
Same thing happened to my grandfather's car. Instead of getting it fixed though he would just hang a hat over the shifter lever on the steering wheel which covered up the key stuck in the ignition. 😀

I seriously doubt his honda has a shifter on the steering column. 😀
