Situation:
wife starts car (2000 pontiac grand am) with remote starter (3 weeks old)
I get in car, use the spare key in the ignition, move it back about 2 feet (So I can open the garage)
When I try to turn the car off, it won't go all the way back to the OFF position!
Now, the SECURITY light is on
My key is stuck in the ignition
Car won't start (or crank) with key or remote starter
Tried disconnecting battery, didn't work.
Help?

Thanks Kerry... Just heard the same thing from someone else. Going home over lunch to try it out.
If it was that, the significant other will probably kill me...
