What to Do When the Key Won't Turn?

[MackenzieMarie]

When the car key won't turn, you should try turning the key while steering the wheel. Here are some details about the issue: 1. Cause Analysis: This is most likely due to the activation of the steering wheel's automatic lock feature. The steering wheel lock is a simple anti-theft function. After the car is turned off, turning the wheel left or right or parking with the wheels not straight can cause the steering lock pin to engage with the steering column. 2. Solution: Insert the key, press the brake, and then turn the steering wheel left and right. While turning the wheel, turn the key to complete the steering wheel unlocking process.
