Stuck Key

I know the Fusion/Focus has had simlar problems. One of my coworkers had her key stuck in the ignition of her Fusion. The problem was a plastic ring aroung button you push on the gear selector.

This platic ring had a broken tab and that wouldn't let the car's cpu register that the vehicle was in park. I had to remove the ring (it just popped out) and the the key released.

This may be the same problem. You can go to the Ford website and see if there's a recall. You'll need to enter the VIN #:

Recall Information - Ford
I don't know if this will help, but I found a few manuals online:

Ford Service Manuals - REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Glad to hear you fixed it. It has to be a huge relief.
