Default key stuck in ignition

OK so I have a 1990 Nissan Maxima. Right now the key is stuck in the ignition and the car wont start. The push release is stuck as well (which I suppose is not letting the key out). This is not the first time that the key has been stuck, but it is the first time that the car wouldn't start. I have tried many things to get the key out- turning the wheel, putting the car in neutral (it is an automatic though), disconnecting the batterey, disconnecting the factory alarm. I am not sure what else to do. Does anyone have any suggestion, or know anyone who has had a similar situation.

Default RE: key stuck in ignition

Try CRC or similar spray into keyhole and let it freely soak, wait half hour and try again. If no hlp, u need locksmith talents...

To start, first requirement is key turning ... after that, multiple other issues may cause nostart. Check http://www.cardomain.com/ride/748507/5
