MikeKLook here (http://isuzufaq.ibctech.ca/#faq78) and check out this thread (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=378601&highlight=key+stuck).

There is a black cable that runs from the steering column to the shifter. You can actually see it if you look under the steering column. A temporary fix is to push up on the cable and it will release the key. I had this problem, of course it will get stuck again, just repeat this process. Finally took it in to the dealer and it cost be about $200. Good Luck!!

After reading the archive and thread, something else comes to mind..........is the steering wheel turned so far to one side that the ignition lock is engaged right at the lock point? If so, try turning the wheel further in the same direction than it already is and that might relieve the lock mechanism.
My wife had the same problem with my Buick when it was parked on a hill with the wheels up against a curb.
