Did the eject mechanism quit operating?

First try resetting the unit and see if that works.

Barring that you may have to get a pair of tweezers or hemostats or something to drag it out of there or take the top off of the unit to get at it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Sorry to hear you're having troubles with a Kenwood //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

not to ask a stupid question but is there any other way of resting the head unit besides unhooking the battery??

Yeah this is the first kenwood I have ever had problems with....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Depending on how easy it is to get to, unplug the harness on the back of the HU.

Hold on just a tick and I'll show you how to reset it without removing the unit //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

My Kenwood is slow at ejecting and taking cd's, compared to all my other Pioneers I had, is this normal?

Okay - using a straight pin or the tip of an ink pen or something small to get in there hit the reset button as illustrated here:

Yup - mobile CD players tend to take a much narrower view of warped discs than do home units....
