Title: 2016 i30 Key won't come out of ignition
Post by: Steevo66 on December 07, 2021, 05:54:15

Hi all, I have a 2016 i30 Active X and have recently been having issues removing the key from the ignition. I have read other post regarding turning the steering and shifting the gear selector which didn't work. Today I banged the gear selector down, not too hard, while in the Park position and the key came out.
Has anyone had a similar issue and was wondering what the issue might be.
Thank you.

Not my model but is there some kind of electric interlock based on a gear selector switch that may be compromised?

Thank you for taking time to reply. That will give me some basis for further investigation.
