I have a 1995 Honda Accord V6, when i put the key in the ignition it wont turn, I press the brake and I still get the same results, my first time turning the car on it worked perfect, and before i use to just move the steering wheel a little, but now the steering wheel locked (security feature on most vehicles) and the key wont turn at all!! HELP!
I had the same problem. Turns out the key was worn down. I still had an original "unused" key which I put into the ignition and had no problems with that key. Since this key worked, it confirmed that the other key was bad.
I then had a copy made and put the original key back into my "auto" file folder in case I needed another key in the future.
If you don't have a spare key, you should still have the metal key tag that came with the car. You can take that to a Honda dealership to have a key made from that.

check your fuse for brake lights. there is a slot next to the shifter to put your key in to release the shifter lock. The problem may be your brake light switch.
You have either a bad ignition switch or the actual tumbler (key slot) is worn out. Or, see if you can get the key out when you put it in NEUTRAL (with the Parking Brake on). If this lets the key out then the problem is within your Interlock Control system.
1. With the Car Off, Press and hold down the Odometer Trip Reset Button.
2. While still pressing the Trip Reset Button, Turn the Ignition Key half way on where all your oil, check engine lights etc.. turn on. Don't turn it as far as you would to normally start the car. Wait a few seconds and the Check engine light will turn off.
3. Turn the key back to the Off position and you're done.
You can try a combination of things, one suggestion i have is to turn the wheel in any free motion it can, and turn the key, or PUSH the key into the ignition and try it that way, or there is a little push button to get the key turning.
There a several recalls that deal with this problem, it seems that due to a defective part in the ignition interlock system at times the key not be removed from the ignition, it appears the issue is corrected by installing a new lock cylinder, to read the full text of recalls on this issue go to link listed below.
