Man my steering wheel is locked. I tried turning the wheel a little and having my gf turn the key but its not working. Any other ideas?

 

hmm....neva heard anything like that b4....hope u get that solved.

 

okay its fixed... damn scared the crap outta me cause i got my interview in a few hours.

 

i scared myself and got it locked also

 

How did you fix it?

 

LOL. This happended to my friend in his Jetta. We all stood around watching him bang on the steering wheel and calling his car every word in the book. Then about 5 of us got in and tried it nothing happended. My friend called AAA. Some random guy asked what was going on he jumped in the next thing you know the car started. One of the funniest nights ever.

Glad you got your car started!

 

next time pour some Sea Foam into the ignition hole, easy fix

 

are you 16 and just learning to drive or something?

 

my steering wheel locks everytime i turn the car off.

 

I want you to box up your keys and send them to me, becuase you have no business being behind the wheel. Heaven forbid the day you leave you car in drive if its an auto and you cant get your keys out......

 

Wow, you guys are a rough crowd....

 

Probably used the wrong key...

 

Or he realized it wasn't his car!!!

 

this is too easy....

get it towed to the junkyard, and set it on fire.

 

HARRRRR!!!!!

 

ooorrr....pull the steering wheel hard to the right and turn the key

 

bah, today was slow...lame jokes are more than acceptable

 

what a bunch of *** wipes, but ill take it lol

anwyas, i rolled it down a little but had to jerk the wheel at the same time. Iunno, compared to other cars my maxima's sterering wheel locks up harder than the others.

 

next topic: I'm out of gas, what should I do?

 

too bad by me retaliating to these comments it is considered harrasement, but you guys making fun of us for making a mistake is acceptable......

 

I'll give you that. I've noticed the same thing....

 

its a safety mechnism that locks the wheel. I think its for hills but i'm not sure. What you do is just wiggle the wheel to the left and right while trying to turn on the ignition. after a second or two, it should free up and you're good to go.

 

You can retaliate by laughing also, we all make mistakes, it's just part of life, your a smarter man today, than you where yesterday. The pain passes and you move on...

Damn, that sounds so OPRAHISH...

 

yeah i had to pop it in nuetral and let it roll down the hill a little and hit the curb.
