Hi. I work on cars and motorcycles all the time. I can try to help you...Can you explain further? What where you working on? what did you remove?
What exactly do you mean the steering wheel is loose? Are you talking about the steering colum?

2004 ion ,key stuck in ignition after its turned off.

try turning your steering wheel from left to right while you gently try removing the key. if that doesnt work and your car is a automatic with the shifter in the center console there is a cable running to the transmission that sometimes becomes loose causing the car not to be fully into the park position.

My 98 ford ranger shuts off when i turn to the right

Does it just kill like you shut the key off ?
If so I would say you have a loose wire or shorting wire in the ignition , that when you turn the steering wheel to the right( the side the igniton tumbler is on) it is catching a wire or shorting.
Please let me know what you find.

2006 Volkswagen Jetta Ignition Lock Problem

I know this is a little late, but I just encountered the same problem with a 2005.5 jetta tdi. Went to put key in ignition and encountered a white plastic tumbler(?) blocking the keyhole. Car was parked, tires were straight and steering wheel was locked. Tried moving wheel up, down, left and right and also tried applying a small amount of oil thinking something was just stuck. Did what I could and finally called VW roadside assistance. Local dealer took a look this afternoon and notified me that the ignition switch is faulty and they have to order a new one from Germany which will take 2 weeks to arrive. Plus side, the part and labor will be covered under CPO warranty, but of course, the warranty doesn't cover a rental car for the two weeks this one will be out of commission.
