i'm suprised no one's come up with a real answer for this. if you pull the key out and the car stays running, theres a short in your ignition switch circuit somewhere. this may not narrow it down too much, but its somewhere to start. could be the switch itself, wiring, or worst, the ecm. i'd recomend taking it back to ford if its still under warranty. they have all the wiring diagrams to trace that out if need be, but chances are its just the switch.

this problem would not be caused by your starter motor btw, that merely starts the car, thats it, if it doesent disengage, you would have completely different problems.
