Just remember, even if you do get the warranty, and your steering-lock fails, you're still going to have to deal with the hassle of having it towed to the dealer, and then having to wait for the part to come in.

I'm sure buying the part and installing it yourself will be much cheaper than the extended warranty. Especially if the extended warranty has a deductible.

Not worth it. Never buy ANY extended warranties, and in the end you'll make out ahead.

The light for the key lock is on the lower left side of the fuel gauge pod. It should turn on (lights up yellow) when you start your car for ~2 seconds then turn off. It has the letters "KEY" above a key symbol. Page 2-8 of the owners manual. On page 2-10 there three paragraphs stating what to expect when that light is on.
