Possibly shake the wheel back and forth for a temporary fix.
Do not trust the GM recalls.
Install CLB and you will be good to go.

mine locked up a few times, the shake back and forth released it. then it locked up for what seemed good.
finally I had a fit of rage and yanked the crap out of the wheel till the columb lock gave up, then I installed the bypass.
