Turn your steering wheel left or right side. If it moves, then good for you. But if doesn't, it probably means that locking system in the steering wheel is damaged. For this, you can just turn the steering wheel opposite to the direction of the car wheels. Most of the time, cars are turned off with the wheels turned on the opposite directions, which makes the key get stuck in the ignition due to pressure in the steering wheel. When the pressure is released from the steering column, a click can be heard and key is released.

If no luck, there might be a problem with shifter mechanism, which means that you have a trip to the repair shop in store for you. Get this problem addressed immediately, as it could mean that your shift interlock is out of order, which can increase the chances of deploying the air bag up in your face, causing a serious injury.

How can I start my 2006 vw passt? Just got out of shop they fixed steering column was locked worked for a week. Now when I put the key in all lights and radio come on but car doesn't turn over. It's...

If it's just had work done on the steering lock I would suspect that the ignition wiring has come adrift in the steering column. If the lights and radio are working the battery is probably OK. As part of the procedure for replacing/fixing the steering lock all ignition connectors are usually removed from the switch, perhaps one has come loose and fallen off the terminal connector.

Key stuck in 2006 honda ridgeline ignition

I guess you already tried moving the steering wheel to releve pressure on the ignition lock. If you already tried that, they have a carbon powder that you can spray into the lock to lube things. It's a dry lube and won't hurt anything.

Hope this helps.
