Hey, this might help, but I really don't know for sure. I know that sometimes the steering wheel lock will not let the key turn. Try moving the steering wheel a little bit while trying to turn the key back so you can take it out. Give it a try.

You also have to push the key in toturn it back to take it out. I know i didnt know this when i first bought my civic, i never had to do that on my old car.
