Try turning the key while rotating the steering wheel slightly left and right to see if the if the wheel lock is activated. That is the only thing I can think of other than what is mentioned above. Is your key bent? Try a local locksmith to get another key made if you do not have a spare.

All due respect for your helpful mechanical contributions to this forum BUT.....

That was a pretty awful display of grammar and punctuation for someone making a case against someone else's english or immigration policy in general.

We are all immigrants unless one is Native American........
