I have had this problem on and off since we got our 2002 ZTW 18 months ago. It seemed to happen all in a 2 month span, happened about 8 times. The key would turn ok, but you couldn't take it out and the steering column wouldn't lock. After jiggling the key and the wheel we could usually get it out. A couple times we just left the key in and took our key fob with us. Hasn't happened for at least 6 months now...guess i should count my blessings.
