Has anyone experienced steering wheel lock in 2013 Hyundai Sonata? Driving on parkway, tried to change lanes, steering wheel locked and caused car to cross three lanes ending up an embankment against a tree. Airbags never deployed. What do I do now?

Get your car repaired. While it is in to repair the damage, have a mechanic diagnose the reason this happened. It may need to visit the dealer for this repair but you need to find out what went wrong and get it fixed before driving again.
