Consumer Description

WHEN I PURCHASED MY 2005 FORD FOCUS, I HAD NOTICED THAT MY KEY WOULD NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. LATER I DISCOVERED, THAT IF YOU "CANNOT" PUSH THE BUTTON IN ON THE AUTOMATIC SHIFTER ON THE FLOOR TO PUT IT INTO GEAR, THE SHIFTER THEREFORE IS LOCKED AND THEN YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO PULL YOUR KEY OUT. THIS WORKS FOR ME, HOPEFULLY IT HELPS SOMEONE ELSE WHO IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR
