    Hey everyone, I ran in to a big issue. Trying to start it key went in easy and rocked forward to start but nothing happened. Tried to take out the key and wouldn't go past the acc spot. From here the key was stuck and wouldn't come out.
    I finally have the key out but the ignition will not go back to lock.
    I've tried the spare key as well with no luck.

    Wtf is going on?

    Please change the title post, be more descriptive and remove the "need help". People around here take that seriously, as if someone is stranded and literally needs help at that moment.

    Edit: of course maybe you are literally stranded right now because your truck won't start. In that case, disregard what i said and good luck!

    Sounds like the switch is locked up. Try turning the steering wheel a little in case it's in a bind and jiggling the shifter. If that does not work you probably need to replace the ignition switch.
