key stuck!

The key is stuck in the ignition in my bro's 92 eg, It won't turn all the way left when pushed in to release. Has this happened to anyone before? what could be the problem?

thanks

That is *****!! Had the problem before too. Keep on playing with it without forcing it.

Is it the original 17 year old key?

Ya dude, my original key was bald and bent. Call some honda dealerships to see who will cut it for that model. You'll need your ownership (for the key code and proof), DL and $30 for 2 keys. They'll cut it on the spot.
