Description of the problem	When trying to move my 2012 f150 truck out of a parking space the steering wheel would only turn to the left side. When trying to turn the wheel to the right the steering wheel would not go past the center position. I tried backing it up and then going forward but nothing would get the wheel to turn to the right side past the center steering wheel position. I tried turning the vehicle on and restarted many times but nothing would free it up. After working with it for 40 minutes and not able to get it out of the parking lot i shut it off and i had the truck towed to the local ford dealership the next day. The dealership has had the vehicle for 2 1/2 weeks and cannot reproduce the problem.
