CommentKey removing
Ford Fusion 2007 100000 miles
I cannot remove the ignition key from the switch. I have already checked the lever's switch and it is workingg properly. I personally believe it must be the brake's switch but I don't know where to find it or how to check it.

I had the key stuck just as you mention and the problem was solved when I took the car to a locksmith. The thing was that a solenoid that goes in the ignition cylinder was damaged, so he disassembled the switch, took out the corresponding solenoid and installed it back again without this piece. The reason was that a new one is really expensive, and without it I have yet not had any problems with the starting. Hope it helps!
The same happened to me, the mechanic removed a sensor on one of the switch's sides, took out a small steel tube which is responsible for giving way to the key and connected the sensor back. It worked but the only inconvenient now is that the key can be taken out at any speed.
CommentIt won't close
Ford Fusion 2006
When I introduce the ignition key, it sometimes happens that the car does not close, the dashboard indicating that the driver's door is opened. The problem comes when parking the car and trying to leave; you want to close the car but it won't, not even manually. I was told the battery might be damaged, so I changed it but the problem remains, even though when I am driving the message suddenly disappears. I don't know what to do because, when I take it to the agency, it does not fail there.

It has to be an issue with the lock itself, it brakes very easy
