sound like a common steering wheel lock interface problem, has it been to the dealer for the recall? if not call your local dealer and schedule an apoitment to get it done, it only takes anbout an hour and completely free. you can also install you own column lock by-pass for about 50-60 bucks and easy to install (just search the sponsors sites

very easy to find). if you wish to build your own by-pass i can give you the schematic and instructions on how, just send me a message and i'll get back to you within a day.

I have the same model with tre same problem that was resolved installing the aftermarket service colum lock by pass, try it... be sure there are no other by pass installed prior at dealer.
