2007 Miata Steering Wheel Lockup, won't start issue...Help

I have a 2007 MX-5 with around 19K miles on it. My wife has been driving it off and on for the past couple of weeks now. She has experienced issues where the car will not start after parking it and the steering wheel seems to be locked up. Gently rocking it back and forth sometimes will allow the car to start. Yesterday, she had to lock and unlock the car and then it started---very strange.

Anyone have any experience with these issues? Thanks!
