I have a 2004 Chev Impala.It has a CD Player. Unfortunately the last CD I played didnot eject. Is there a simple way to fix this?  
  
 Has anyone else had this problem?

Should have a cut and paste for this,check and see if two (2)CD’s are in the place for one (1). Seems like many people make this mistake. I worked for a warranty OEM repair shop and we had this problem time after time.

Some times if you disconnect the battery at the ground terminal for a minute of two, then reconnect it, the CD player will reset and eject the CD. Not if there are 2 in there, or if your 4 year old put a Ritz cracker in the slot.
