Has anybody had this message on screen.... 'Please Release Steering'. The car is dead until the message is cleared.
 
Does the car mean the steering lock ? And no I never even saw that message appear on mine....
 
My dealer has no idea what the message means! Their less than helpful view was go and call MG Assistance that is actually the AA.
 
Yes I have had this message and YES the car is dead until the message clears itself. You are right the dealers have no idea generally about the car and so are usually useless.
 
I had the same issue this week. it turned out that the steering wheel was locked. I turn off the car, back on (2 press on start but no foot on the brake pedal), turn the steering wheel manually (with a little bit of force). Turned the car off and started it, and it worked. I have to say it was quite confusing.
 
I had this issue today with the engine running. I couldn’t get it in gear and I couldn’t get the engine off anymore. More than confusing. After 8 min of trying logic and illogic I could turn the engine off. Problem solved for now. Until another MG surprise pops up.
