Broken Steering Column?
So...
I go to start my '06 Lariat SCrew. Key won't turn.
My wife says "did you jiggle the steering wheel?" (like I'm an idiot, so I tell her no and let her try).
Tow truck driver says "did you jiggle the steering wheel?" so I tell him no and let him try.
Boy, it sure stung to see my truck on the hook. Glad my (Chevy-truck-driving) neighbor wasn't around.
Ford dealer says "did you jiggle the steering wheel?" so they try.
Dealer says that Ford Focus' have a problem with stuck ignition cylinders but they've never seen one in an F-150... usually requires replacement of the cylinder.
Now, two days later... they've ordered me a new steering column which is 7 - 10 days away... (I'm in Canadastan)
Anybody seen anything like that? A new steering column?
