today randomly my key just stopped working I tried all day to try and get it to work but nothing works. When I started the wheel would turn but it got stuck at all the way to the right and wont move much anymore. I called AAA but they said all they can do is tow it. Any suggestions on what I should do?

 

Turn it left as u turn the key

 

I'm about to try again but the wheel won't turn much at all it locked at the very right

 

nope still couldn't get it

 

Sounds like your steering wheel is turned too much relative to the front wheels. Put the car in neutral, push the car either forward or backward for a foot or so. That should free the wheel enough for you to turn the key.

 

I forgot to mention I can't get the car out of park

 

The key doesn't turn at all? Was gonna say if you have 6sp you can jump the car in neutral

 

If you can't get out of Park, try jack up the front end to allow the front tires to catch up with the steering. You need both wheels off the ground.

 

Is there an easier way? I don't have the tools for that.

 

If you (or a friend/neighbor) don't have access to a jack and you really can't fix the problem, you may need to get AAA to tow you to a mechanic.

 

I called AAA earlier today I was really hoping a locksmith would be all I need but they wanted to tow me. Is getting towed the only way to do this?

 

Sounds like your steering wheels is locked.

 

Just rock the steering wheel as much as you can each direction while trying to turn the key. If it's locked it'll come free eventually.

This may sound stupid, but it worked for me on another car. Turn the wheel as hard as you can to the right while turning the key. Get a friend to help if needed. What do you have to lose?

 

man up and grab that wheel and show it who is boss..turn the key while manhandling the wheels back and forth..rock the car as much as possible..

u dont have a jack ? cmon man!!

 

if its auto she the lil thing that says shift lock pop the plug out push the key in there put in in nutral and then try

 

^^ that. Or the AAA guy can lift your front end in 30 sec or less.

 

Thanks this sounds like it should work I have t owait until it stops raining to try though. And the AAA person on the phone said all they'll do is tow it to the nearest nissan dealership.

 

dam got the car in neutral but still can't get the steering wheel to turn. It's locked all the way to the right can only move it maybe an inch.

 

AAA guy got here and said he couldn't tow my car because the steering wheel is locked. Any suggestions on what I should do?
