How to Deal with a Locked Steering Wheel and Engine Failure in a Mazda6?

[RyanAnn]

First, insert the key and press the brake pedal, then try to turn the steering wheel left and right, even though it is currently locked. While turning the wheel, you may notice a slight movement. Simultaneously turn the key to complete the steering wheel unlocking procedure. If the first attempt doesn't succeed, don't panic. Remove the key and repeat the above steps 1-2 times, and it should unlock successfully. Check if the gear is in the P position. If not, shift it into P and try starting the vehicle again, which should normally resolve the issue.
