Hey, I have a 2014 Ram 1500 5.7L with push to start and electronic braking system.
Yesterday morning I started my truck and the steering wheel was locked as if the vehicle was still turned off. I tired turning it off and on a couple times but that didn't fix it, I eventually put it in drive and pulled forward about 10 feet then went straight back, and while backing up it unlocked the steering and I was able to drive fine. This morning however it was back and I tried my trick of going forward then back multiple times, checked the EPS fuse and tried letting it run for about 30 minutes but it didn't unlock the steering wheel. I got a ride to work and when I got home I tried to turn on my truck and the steering wheel was working perfectly fine.
The only thing that changed was it was - 14
Celsius in the morning and +6 when I got home. Any idea what could cause this issue?
Should I be worried about loosing steering while driving?
