    I own a 2018 Tundra TRD Off Road and love it. I have a very strange issue that just showed up today. I drove to the store and everything was fine. When I went to leave the parking lot, if I turned my wheel either way it did not want to move forward. It drives fine in a straight line. I have checked everything I can think of; brakes work well, truck tracks fine(doesn't pull), steering works fine(checked the power steering reservoir). There is nothing that I can see broken anywhere, and no bearing grind or noise. I have an appointment at the Toyota dealeship but thought I would put this out there to see if anyone could tell me what I am missing. It drives and brakes fine as lon as I drive straight. It has not been used for off road or heavy use. I do tow a travel trailer but haven't done that since last summer.

    In 4WD? Broken tie rod? Rear differential locked?

    Weird. Almost sounds like you were in 4wd and didn’t know it? Your front tires would bind up and feel like they were kind of frozen if that were the case.
