Car beeps at me, even after I remove the key
If I take longer than 5 seconds to pull my key out of the ignition after turning the engine off, the car will keep beeping as though the key is still in the ignition. If I walk away, I cannot arm my alarm, because of it.
If I put the key back in, flick the ignition on, then off, and pull the key immediately, the beeping goes away and I can arm the alarm.
Any ideas here? Seems weird to me. Is this a "feature", or some kind of problem?

This has been around for a while. What's happening is you don't pull your key in a snap motion and the little lip stays open. All you need to do is put the key in and take it back out. You'll hear the click.

I used to have the same problem until I mastered the art of removing the key just right
