Help - locked steering wheel

[Julia_Rose]

Can anyone help, I have a 2004 c200 which I've only had for a week. Earlier I tried to reverse out of a parking spot, it was quite tight so I have to turn quite sharply. Half way out my steering wheel locked and my dashboard brought up the LIM symbol and engine light. I put the car into park, turned it off and back on and that unlocked the steering and cleared the dash of warning lights.

Does anyone know what happened or what could be wrong?

Thanks

It sounds like the engine just died. If you don't have any error codes (i.e. no check engine light illuminated) then it's probably a fuel delivery problem. It could be symptoms of a weak fuel pump, or maybe just some trash clogged the filter.
