If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

Recently my car has been throwing up a message over the dash, steering wheel lock malfunction. After that going on & off every few days it got worse and worse occurring more often. Finally the other day my car would not start, and it would not except my key. The key would not open the car or start it.

I took it to a mechanic, and he said the alarm module needed to be replaced. I searched online for a alarm module for my year (2007), and so far I could not find anything.

Does this sound right? The quote I received from the mechanic is $1,200
