Exclamation Fob Locked In Ignition. HELP!

Hi Guys,

Out running errands today and noticed that my key fob is suddenly locked in the ignition hole. It doesn't have any play at all. Not even that little 1/4" you push past the lock position to take it in and out. I did notice the steering wheel doesn't lock when the car is off.(?) It starts and stops fine, operates fine. But the key won't come out. Now, I did use a pair of pliers and pulled the fob out. And I can 'click' it back in if I push it. But whether its in or out, the radio display stay on, so I'm afraid I'm going to kill my battery overnight.

Anyone have this experience? Is there a a fix? Is it going to cost me a trip to the dealer?

Thanks in advance. I'll be checking back in here every 15 minutes or so for discussions/answers/suggestions.
