I have a 2003 Chevy blazer xtreme 4.3 v6 automatic transmission and its giving me some issues with the console shifter and ignition system! Every other time I put the blazer in park and try to take the key out of the ignition it will not let me!! The key turns back but not far enough to remove the key! Then if I start it back up and shift from neutral to reverse than back to park and hold the shifter forward, it will release! What is this issue? I don't want to get stick someplace and not be able to remove the key!! Please help!

A GM Chevy GEO tracker is Suzuki Vitara.
not told by you he problem or where it he drive-train or brake system ???? please name a problem.
no engine told. my guess v6. H25 , nor transmissions.
1.6 L L01 I4 (G16B Suzuki actual)
2.0 L J20A I4 130 hp
2.5 L H25A V6 155 hp
the word Orifice is mostly told in the contexts of these subjects below.
1: engine head, orifice to limit cam gallery feed oil to cam.
2: AC air conditioning HVAC expansion valve ,as a spray orifice inside.
3: brake ABS modulators.
4: A/T automatic transmission has many. (vast)
5: fuel injectors are kind of modulated ORIFICE
6: crankshaft gallery feed orifices.
surely more can be found, but no clue me the problem.

I have the full set of manuals and endless data on some like G16 engines. just ask,
and all 3 + transmissions.

Ignition Lock Cylinder Control Actuator
If the vehicle is equipped with a floor mounted console gear shifter, it has a ignition lock cylinder control actuator system in the steering column as an added safety feature. The ignition lock cylinder control actuators purpose is to prevent the steering wheel from being locked when the transmission is in gear and the vehicle may still be moving. The column ignition lock system consists of a ignition lock cylinder control acutator, and a park position switch that is located in the A/T shift lock control switch. The ignition lock cylinder control acutator contains a pin that is spring loaded out to mechanically prevent the ignition key cylinder from being turned to the lock position when vehicle transmission is not in the Park position. If vehicle power is lost, and/or the transmission is not in the Park position the operator will not be able to turn the ignition key to the lock position and will not be able to remove the ignition key from the column. GM has had some problems with this , If you have the console shifter there is a micro switch that when put into park a linkage pushes on this micro switch closing the circuit to ignition lock cylinder control actuator allowing you to remove your key ! These linkages fall out causing this problem ,an have electrical wiring problems as well ! I fixed a 2006 Chevy cobalt that had this same problem by getting a used shifter assembly at the auto salvage year ! cost $20.00 . There mite be a access hole under the bottom of the steering column with a release button up inside !

Does it go into the lock position ? Will the shifter go into the park position ? Is it a automatic transmission ?
Electronic Park Lock (EPL)/Ignition Lock Cylinder Control Actuator: If the vehicle is equipped with automatic transmission and a floor mounted console gear shift, it has an ignition lock cylinder control actuator system in the steering column. The ignition lock cylinder control actuator purpose is to prevent the ignition key from being turned to the OFF position when the transmission is in any position other than PARK and the vehicle may still be moving. The column ignition lock system consists of an ignition lock cylinder control actuator, and a park position switch that is located in the automatic transmission shift lock control switch. The ignition lock cylinder control actuator contains a pin that is spring loaded to mechanically prevent the ignition key cylinder from being turned to the lock position when the vehicle transmission is not in the PARK position. If vehicle power is lost, and/or the transmission is not in the PARK position the operator will not be able to turn the ignition key to the lock position and will not be able to remove the ignition key from the column.
There should be a hole in the bottom of plastic steering cover or a rubber cover that comes out . you can stick your finger up there an there is a button you push that will allow you to take out the key !

Does your impala have floor shifter ?

Check the tranny where cable attaches, you should feel clicks when moving shifter if not your not shifting tranny.

8 degrees for manual transmission, 12 degrees for automatic transmission, without California or high altitude emissions.

IF ITS AN AUTOMATIC, ITS PROBLY IN THE SHIFTER OR BRAKE PEDAL SWITCH. PLAY WITH THEM UNTIL YOU HEAR A CLICK. THEN YOUR KEY SHOULD TURN.

under the battery is where you need to check first,then follow it down around the right front wheel well,
