Key Gets Stuck in Ignition, Shifter can still move

2016 Subaru Crosstrek

When I come to a stop, place my shifter in park, turn off the car, sometimes I cannot remove the key without moving the shifting back and forth until the key will come out. Car actually engages the parking paw when car is on so issue only happens when the vehicle is turned off.

I am suspecting there is sensor that might have gunk on it. Thoughts?

Faulty neutral safety switch can do that.

That is the subject of a service campaign by Subaru, they should fix it for free. (You should have received a letter from Subaru to that effect. In fact a friend is being reimbursed for having already paid for the repair.)
