Question about locking the steering wheel
Ok so, I know that most/all cars have the steering wheel lock function to where if the car is off, the steering wheel can lock and you cannot unlock it without having the key.
So I read somewhere that if someone tries to hotwire your car but your steering wheel is locked, the car will start, but the steering wheel will still be locked even with the car running because of the key not being there. Is that true for the FD too? sorry, hope I didnt confuse anyone.

The also FD has this. Atleast my EUDM FD does.
I've never heard of a modern car that didn't have it.
Also, it's pretty easy to break the lock on most cars, yank the steeringwheel hard enough and it will snap.
