2016 1500 Laramie. Truck is unlocked and in garage but fobs are gone. How do I unlock the steering wheel and put it neutral without a fob?
NO KEY FOB. NOW WHAT?

just above your Ram E Brake release lever
The plastic square above will pry out fairly easily
Behind that cover, there is a lever that allows the truck to go into neutral
watch this video, so that you don't break anything

call some Mobile Locksmiths to see what they charge for a New FOB, Programing & to cut a Valet Key
It is usually much cheaper than the dealership.
Try ACE Hardware also

$24,000 question. Does that also unlock the steering?

That lever only releases the transmission....not the steering column.

Really? I swear mine locks.. I guess I cant confirm that by memory but I'm pretty sure my 2014 locks the steering. Unless I'm just that scrawny that I cant turn my 37s without the power steering.

We'll have to go with the 2nd thought,lol. The steering on any Chyrco product hasn't locked in yearsReally? I swear mine locks.. I guess I cant confirm that by memory but I'm pretty sure my 2014 locks the steering. Unless I'm just that scrawny that I cant turn my 37s without the power steering.

The $24,000 question should be, what happened to the fobs ? Maybe someone is just looking for a way to "borrow" someone's truck ???

Hmmmmmmm, gonna have and go outside and see if my Steering locks, I do not remember either my 2015 ED did either?
REPORT: No locking. The BOIRD last time I remember steering locking was on an 86 GMC Jimmy, which had the "key/ignition" in the steering column. Think any of the dashboard mounted ones have not locked for years, just did not even remember that till I read the post, the things U learn and remember being on this forum, LOL.

My thought as well. Locksmith is an easy solution, just have to be able to prove ownership.
