The steering wheel is in the locked position
Move the steering wheel back & forth, while gently lifting the key out ofignition. Sometimes the steering wheel will lock, and when this happens, the ignition switch will keep your key locked in place until the steering system is unlocked. Don't pull tool hard on the key.
