I have a 2014 sierra crew cab. Since it was new I have been having a problem with the steering wheel locking and being unable to turn the key to start/unlock the wheel. The dealer has replaced the whole steering column with no fix. Has anyone had the same problem and what is the fix.

If you turn the wheel a little does it let you turn the key

Welcome to the site.

 

Is the truck a 4WD, lifted, modded, the more info you provide, the better our guesses will be.

 

Have you ever had any messages pop up about reduced steering? Maybe you have a bad steering rack.

Exactly.

First time this happened to me it was because I turned the wheel as I was turning off the key . It's like it's binding. I've had it happen in both my 2018's so I'd say nothing is wrong with it

I always park my truck with the wheels pointed straight ahead. If I have ever had a hard time turning the key it's been because I have parked the truck or my car with the wheels turned.

True your spare key maybe it’s the key.
