I had this problem on my 2001 gtp and i was forced to replace the entire shifter because there is a solenoid in there which tell the ignition to let go of the key when it is in park. when mine went out i could put it in park and shut it off but not be able to remove the key. Remove the screws from underneath the plastic cover that surrounds your steering column. Then look along the ignition cylinder you will see a spring loaded tab, push that in and the cylinder will pull out. Then push the new one in and replace the plastic cover.
