Yet ours seems caught on something, I am able to pull it out about 1/4" but thats it and if i hit the release button at that time it sucks it back into the fridge instead of out! The fridge was here when we bought the house and we have never changed the filter prior to today. Thanks!

Unfortunately, you will have to take the control panel out to fix this, not an easy job. Just checked, this is a Frigidaire refrigerator, probably with the flat filter. You will have to go to the Sears appliance parts site on line (just crunch in Google) to get a diagram that helps a little.
