Telescoping Steering wheel not related to battery
FYI...I replaced my battery yesterday with a battery from the dealer and my steering wheel still does not fully retract upon turning the car off. I drive a lot of short trips, 12 miles and then the car sits all day, then 12 miles home. Only time the steering wheel will really fully retractis if I go on a longer trip.
I've seen a lot of people writing that they think their battery is failing because the wheel won't retract and in my experience they are unrelated. I replaced my battery because it was five years old and the indicator on the battery said it needed a charge.
Anybody have any thoughts? I'm under warranty if I need to go to the dealer.

I've noticed that very infrequently when I turn off the car, doors do not unlock. I did not pay attention to steering wheel. However, it is very infrequent. I chalked it up to trying to open the door too fast, or perhaps turning car off before I had totally engaged transmission into park.

No, you're right - what I meant to say was that I thought it might be that I turned the car off very quickly after putting in park.
That said, 5 minutes ago, went to the store and the door "not unlock" feature happened. What a wierd coincidence. Anyway, the steering wheel DID retract. So, our problems (mine and OP) are not related.
