2008 T&C Ignition Key Sticking
I'm not really a car person, so I'll describe my issue as best as I can.
I recently bought a 2008 Chrysler T&C. Recently, we've noticed when we go to turn the ignition off, the KEY Fob will not turn all the way to the OFF position and allow us to remove the key. I need to put my foot on the brake, and drop it into DRIVE and then back to PARK and try again. Most of the time, this works. I have had to repeat the steps above to finally get the key out. I'm afraid that I am eventually going to strip the gear shifter.
I do have remote car start. I have noticed that when I use that, then insert the key into the ignition, that it seems to stick the most when I got to turn the car off. However, not always.
Any ideas or help is appreciated.

1 - I would take it to the dealer because your under warranty.
2 - I think whats going on here is that the switch is not being fully seated into park. I would think that something is binding up on the cable or is loose in there.
