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.

Caution
Modifications to the engine,
transmission, exhaust, intake,
or fuel system, or the use of
replacement tires that do not meet
the original tire specifications, can
cause this light to come on. This
could lead to costly repairs not
covered by the vehicle warranty.
This could also affect the vehicle’s
ability to pass an Emissions
Inspection/Maintenance test. See
Accessories and Modifications0260.
If the light is f lashing : A
malfunction has been detected that
could damage the emission control
system and increase vehicle
emissions. Diagnosis and service may
be required.
To help prevent damage, reduce
vehicle speed and avoid hard
accelerations and uphill grades.
If towing a trailer, reduce the amount
of cargo being hauled as soon as
possible. If the light continues to flash, find a
safe place to park. Turn the vehicle off
and wait at least 10 seconds before
restarting the engine. If the light is
still flashing, follow the previous
guidelines and see your dealer for
service as soon as possible.
If the light is on steady :
A
malfunction has been detected.
Diagnosis and service may be
required.
Check the following:
. If fuel has been added to the
vehicle using the capless fuel
funnel adapter, make sure that it
has been removed. See “Filling the
Tank with a Portable Gas Can ”
under Filling the Tank 0242. The
diagnostic system can detect if the
adapter has been left installed in
the vehicle, allowing fuel to
evaporate into the atmosphere.
A few driving trips with the
adapter removed may turn off the
light.
. Poor fuel quality can cause
inefficient engine operation and
poor driveability, which may go away once the engine is warmed
up. If this occurs, change the fuel
brand. It may require at least one
full tank of the proper fuel to turn
the light off. See
Recommended
Fuel 0241.
If the light remains on, see your
dealer.
Emissions Inspection and
Maintenance Programs
If the vehicle requires an Emissions
Inspection/Maintenance test, the test
equipment will likely connect to the
