Mechanical issues
I was driving home 2 days ago (mind you I have a
ford expedition 2000 I live in Vegas and its
extremely hot) getting off a 30 minute drive from
the free way when my steering wheel locked. I
pulled over and my car was still on I could brake
and use the gas. I turned my car off and on and the
steering wheel was still locked. Then as I went to
back up in my parking space ( at this point I know I
was straining the wheel to turn) white smoke
comes from under the hood and brown fluid was
leaking everywhere. (It had a weird odor) I pop the
hood and notice it came from the coolant, what the
hell happen? How do I unlock my steering wheel?
Should I tow it to the shop or see if it can drive it if I
add new coolant and find a way to unlock the
steering wheel?
