Angry Take off and stop click from front of car. key stuck in ignition!

out of no where when i stop soon as i hit the brakes it clicks like something is loose just one click, then when i take off slow or fast it clicks one time to go forward. i do get on it alot and floorit but i got 63k miles and it just starts? also my key is stuck in the ignition and wont come out. the wheel isnt stuck and it is in park, tried those basic things so i leave the key in the ignition all the time so its prime for being stolen how should i fix these things?

take off the plastic under the wheel (or reach around it).. and there will be a little button.. press it. the key will pop out.

the click in the front end is probably the crappy cv joints

Sounds like CV joints. Start planning now on replacing. Once a click starts, it will just get worse, although it will take some time.

it sounds to me like a motor mount that collapsed. that allows the motor/drivetrain to flop, which pulls on the shift cables, which won't allow you to properly place the car fully into park. try backing up and stopping, then putting it into park and see if you can get your key out.
