Goddamn... I have an '09... Do I need to brace myself for the moment when my steering lock will give up?

I wonder if the previous owner(I'm the 2nd owner) had "experience" with the Steering lock fuse. Hopefully, mine will last till the I change vesicles

I'm assuming the funny lies in a fuse that doesn't exist.

Yes.

There is no steering lock mechanism on model years 2012 and newer...

There was a fuse one could pull to disable the SLM on model years so-equipped.

I did a whole diy on this yrs ago and in there we found that the 12's don't have the steering lock unit thanks to ZGirl checking for us.
