Hello

It sounds like the shift interlock cable has hung up or failed

Remove the shrouds from the steering column, Then at the bottom of the column at the side and rear of the key cylinder there is a rectangular boss that the interlock slides into, you will see a yellow tab, find the position of the ignition key that will allow this tab to be pressed up towards the column and then slide the shift interlock cable assembly out of the column, inspect the yellow parts that slide up and down in the column for excessive scarring, if badly scored the cable assembly will need to be replaced, if not clean up the yellow slide and the receptacle on the column add some spray lubricant to the yellow parts and move back and forth until free moving, add some spray into the receptacle and then slide the cable back into the column, shift the car from park to low and back to park and try to remove key, if it still will not come out the interlock cable will need to be replaced, you can for a temporary measure to get your key out to park the jeep slide the cable back out of the column and remove key---- waring this will allow shifting with out key
