03' F250 4x4 V8 - When I hit the brakes I hear a dull "dunk" and feel a vibration under the driver floor board. I have changed the callipor, pads and rotors. I have also checked the ball joints. Any advise on the next step? Need help!

Pontiac Aztek - Can't remove ignition key by swissdude

our trusty 2001 pontiac aztek has the following problem:
we can't remove the ignition key.
engine can be switched off, but lock won't go back to release
position.
this started happening out of the blue.
is this the key itself, the lock or an electrical problem?

I gotta ask the obvious:
 
Have you tried yanking the steering wheel to its most extreme position (left or right) while trying to remove the key?
  
Is the shifter in Park?
 
Hope this helps.

In addition to what suvshopper suggested, it could be a power problem if your battery is getting old, or possibly what I just went through with mine,,,,, the lock cylinder was appearantly partially froze and would not give key back until vehicle was very warm after running for a long time. In my case I still haven't fixed leaky sunroof issue so I have had considerable moisture build up in cabin (shifter also had issue being stuck in park for I guess same reason) and I ended ups letting it run for an hour or so with A/C on and heat on high with windows cracked (A/C turns compressor on which helps dry out air)

all
- shifter is in park.
- yanking on the steering wheel to no avail.
- we were driving the car for 90+ minutes before this first happened, everything was running normally during this time.
- in the position where the key is stuck, it appears that the battery is getting drained.
- after a jumpstart of the battery, car comes on normally,
except that the dash board now shows a 'SECURITY' warning.
 
car's in the shop now, i'll let y'all know what the finding was.
