"key in ignition" warning even when out??

[Guelphguy]

I have a problem where even with the key out, the car keep dinging and warning that the key is in the ignition? Anyone come across this before? Kinda came and went away for awhile but been doing this for almost a week straight now.

Mine does that if I park/put the car into park then yank the key out too quickly. Happened for a couple of weeks last spring and started happening again last week.

Ignition switch problem. It'll get worse. Not a fun job to replace.
