CD stuck in in-dash radio

So the other day I go out to the car and eject a cd from the radio and put another in. The display says "No Cd" and so I hit eject and it won't come back out. This has actually been 2 weeks now and I've hit eject probably 1000 times and nothing. When I hit "CD" it displays "No Cd". Any thoughts on how to get the CD out? Never had this issue before. This is a home-burned CD.

Can you hear the disc spinning inside? I don't have any experience with this issue on these cars, but sometimes you can use a small flat head screwdriver to push the disc in a little more and see if it will recognize it.

I had mine stuck for a few days. I kept hitting the eject button at every available opportunity. It eventually popped out after about a hundred attempts.

I read somewhere to use a credit card, adhere "Gorilla Tape" to the outside of the card to provide a sticky surface, then insert the card partially into the CD slot to try to stick to the CD that is in the cassette, and press the "eject" button. I just tried this for a CD I've been trying to remove for several days, and voila . . . the CD followed the credit card as I pulled it out. I suspect the solution was using this brand of sticky tape, because it is tenacious in sticking to things. So glad, because I had borrowed the CD from the local library.

Your home made disk is probably warpped and you will need to dismantle the radio to safely get it out.
