Steering problem #1

Steering is locked and cannot be rotated in the morning when started. It happened twice from last days while I'm removing car out of garage in reverse mode. I applied brakes and restarted the car and checked the steering again then it worked well. I hope this problem won't come when I was on freeway. Odo meter is around 140000.

Steering problem #2

I was backing out of my parking spot and my steering wheel locked up.

Steering problem #3

After parking car, the key will not turn on ignition. Locks up.
