| Yesterday after work I was having problem turning the key. My steering wheel was stuck. I could not turn the wheel and my shift was stuck also. I tried to unlock the shift and put it to neutral but I still can not turn the wheel. My 3 co-workers tried to help me but they can not figure it out. So I called the roadside assistance. Surprisingly I get to talk to a live person within 45 second. I told him my problem and he told me to turn the wheel while turning the key. And it did work. I was out of there in 2 minutes. I felt so dumb at the same time I was amazed at their speedy solution. BTW anyone has similar problem before? |

Haha, id lock the wheels on the van or the old ford(now in a dump somewhere) and watch my parents get all confused. I figured most people knew this trick?
I assume it has something to do with anti-theft.

This is true with just about every modern vehicle out there. If the steering wheel is at full lock it can be difficult to remove/turn the key. |
