Steering Column Lock
If equipped, the steering column
lock is a theft-deterrent device. This
feature locks the steering column
when the vehicle is turned off and
the driver door is opened, or when
the driver door is opened and then
the vehicle is turned off. The
steering column unlocks when the
vehicle is turned on.
The Driver Information Center (DIC)
may display one of these
messages:
. A message to service the
steering column lock indicates
that an issue has been detected
with the column lock feature and
the vehicle should be serviced.
. A message that the steering
column is locked indicates that
the engine is running, but the
steering column is still locked.
It is normal for the column to be
locked during a remote start, but
the column should unlock after
the brake pedal is pressed and the vehicle is started. No
message will display during a
remote start.
. A message that the steering
wheel must be turned and the
vehicle must be started again
indicates that the column lock
mechanism is bound, the column
locking device was unable to
unlock the steering column, and
the vehicle did not start. If this
happens, immediately turn the
steering wheel from side to side
to unbind the column lock. If this
does not unlock the steering
column, turn the vehicle off and
open the driver door to reset the
system. Then turn the vehicle on
and immediately turn the
steering wheel side to side for
about 15 seconds. In some
cases, it may take significant
force to unbind the column.
To keep the steering column from
binding, straighten the front wheels
before turning off the vehicle.

airbags. Airbag inflation does not
prevent the driver from seeing out of
the windshield or being able to steer
the vehicle, nor does it prevent
people from leaving the vehicle.
{Warning
When an airbag inflates, there
may be dust in the air. This dust
could cause breathing problems
for people with a history of
asthma or other breathing trouble.
To avoid this, everyone in the
vehicle should get out as soon as
it is safe to do so. If you have
breathing problems but cannot
get out of the vehicle after an
airbag inflates, then get fresh air
by opening a window or a door.
If you experience breathing
problems following an airbag
deployment, you should seek
medical attention.
The vehicle has a feature that may
automatically unlock the doors, turn
on the interior lamps and hazard
warning flashers, and shut off the fuel system after the airbags inflate.
The feature may also activate,
without airbag inflation, after an
event that exceeds a predetermined
threshold. After turning the ignition
off and then on again, the fuel
system will return to normal
operation; the doors can be locked,
the interior lamps can be turned off,
and the hazard warning flashers can
be turned off using the controls for
those features. If any of these
systems are damaged in the crash
they may not operate as normal.
{Warning
A crash severe enough to inflate
the airbags may have also
damaged important functions in
the vehicle, such as the fuel
system, brake and steering
systems, etc. Even if the vehicle
appears to be drivable after a
moderate crash, there may be
concealed damage that could
make it difficult to safely operate
the vehicle.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
Use caution if you should attempt
to restart the engine after a crash
has occurred.
In many crashes severe enough to
inflate the airbag, windshields are
broken by vehicle deformation.
Additional windshield breakage may
also occur from the front outboard
passenger airbag.
. Airbags are designed to inflate
only once. After an airbag
inflates, you will need some new
parts for the airbag system.
If you do not get them, the
airbag system will not be there
to help protect you in another
crash. A new system will include
airbag modules and possibly
other parts. The service manual
for the vehicle covers the need
to replace other parts.
. The vehicle has a crash sensing
and diagnostic module which
records information after a
