CGRA#31 Ummm, the wheels turned slightly.

We located this new Silverado at the debtor's workplace. With newer vehicles, the steerwheels generally lock within a slight turn of the front wheels... so if the vehicle has straighten wheels, they turn slightly when pulled in one direction or the other, then the wheel locks. Unfortunately, I had to make a tight turn to get out of the parking space, and the wheels locked.... all the way to the left. Had to stop and remedy the situation so as not to use both lanes all the way home.

Thanks for the comments. This was a 2007 Chevrolet Silverado and the steering wheel will not lock, however, I pulled a 1998 Chevrolet Silverado a few days later and that steering wheel did lock. Not sure what year they stopped making the ones that does not lock.

I'll say this one thing.....if I knew you were recovering my collateral like this you'd be out of a job. You were in what looked to be a shoping center parking lot so grab your balls and do this job the right way, pop the door, jigle the ignition, straighten the tires, wrap the seat belt and bounce. Go back to parking enforcement you give us a bad rep.

@centralgarepo my dads got a 2009 and it locks lol

it was 99 when they stopped locking and the new rams dont lock anymore neither but thats ok wedge and hook and pull that seat forward and loop the seatbelt around the steering wheel and move the seat back your good too go

For Chevrolets... the years matter...

[Raulkingsville]

honestly i dont think the year matters...some just lock and others dont. i picked a 06 liberty base model and the steering wheel locked. a few hours later i picked up a 07 liberty a nicer edition and the dam thing turned.

who the hell are theses idots

[repoman1777]

Oh, yeah... my friend has a 99 and it locks. So, I believe it was 2000 or 2001...

Or, unlock the door... and turn the wheel straight, then tie it off with the seatbelt.

I think the method I just typed is a lot better... But idk,
