Default Re: Ignition key won't turn

I am afraid I am going to get stuck somewhere in a parking lot.

Should I be concerned about this?
Sometimes its tight until you turn the steering wheel a little to take the pressure of the lock. This can occur if the steering wheel is not on center and the car rolls a little when the key is taken out.
