Turn the steering wheel, can you turn the vehicle on?? My key does that sometimes i put it in the other way and i can turn key on and start it try turning key towards you , then try turning the wheel to get key out.

Mine did this it was a dead battery. As soon as I hooked up the jump box it was fine. Also make sure your in park to pull out key.. no insults intended but most people don't realize there not in park and can't get a key out. But this did that before you got to drive it so it is the battery
