Description of the problem	While driving my new 2009 acura tl the steering wheel locked up. I was driving in the snow in ct at about 6:00 pm on feb 17th. I was traveling down a hill in my hometown that i have driven on literally thousands of times. I know the hill is fairly steep so i was going very slow (about 10 mph) at the bottom of the hill the road curves to the left. As i approached the turn my steering wheel locked in place and i slid into the guardrail doing only minor cosmetic damage to the right from bumper and fender. The car had to be towed from the scene because the steering wheel was still locked solid. The acura dealer in norwalk ct has had the car on a lift for almost 2 weeks and still does not know why that happened. Needles to say i don't want the car back!
