My car's steering wheel for the past couple of days has been so stiff and hard to maneuver. i went to work fine but as i was about to leave work, i turned the car on, seems like the start was weak, as i backed up 2 feet, the steering wheel was so hard to maneuver. i went to park my car back to where it was from, turned off the engine, then all i hear was a clicking sound, engine won't start. coworkers jumped the car, it started, took it to advance for diagnosis, they didn't find anything wrong on the alternator or battery (both less than 2 years old). the car ran like nothing was wrong. went to work driving the car the following day. it was fine, until i have to leave work again. the same thing happened!!! car's on park, started the car, backed up, turned the wheels, it was stiff and it seemed to have locked, coworkers jump started it, drove home but the steering wheel was acting weird. i made it home. husband drove the car a blocks from the house to see it for himself then while driving back he mentioned that the ...

2014 Toyota Corolla

The issue started with the battery terminals growing a lot of corrosion. had to be cleaned off and sprayed with cleaner and lubricant every couple of months. then as i turn the key in the ignition, the car will sputter before starting. when the car is on, the steering wheel is stiff and immovable for the first minute or so. i can't turn the wheel. it loosens up as you drive. it will randomly get a bit stiff when driving on the highway. typical speeds of 45mph or faster.
