Default key stuck in ignition

Hey guys, my key keeps getting stuck in the ignigion and the only way to get them out is to unplug the battery. I already tried replacing the lock cylinder but that did not fix problem. Any advice would be appreciated!

Here is a video I made of the problem:

Next time it happens, check to make sure the shifter button is not slightly depressed; press the shifter button several times to see if the problem still exist.

If the key can come out after pressing the shifter button, then it may due to the plunger (where arrow is pointing) sticking on the shift lever.

Okay, I will try that next time it happens. Thank you for the diagram as well, I was looking for one. Cheers
