| Steering locked hard right
I just unpacked my Jeep and while trying it out in the kitchen, the steering locked hard right on the first turn. Any suggestions on how to unlock?

your axle popped out of the hub, flip it over, hold the tire that is popped and hit the throttle, it should bring it back in... MrMychief had the same problem but he had a bent axle. |

Like Twisted said, and if that doesn't fix it. May need to go exchange it.

or, on top of the steering post is a little board that controls center lock for the steering.. yours mght have had a wire come off or something causing it to freakout... do you hear the motor trying to turn it still or is it just mechanically stuck?

mine did that after a roll into the creek.....brought it home, tore it all down, cleaned everything in the axles (including inside of the steering box), dryed off the boards, and it was/is fine afetrwards......
