Default Steering Wheel locking up

1998 Neon...I was driving home and the steering wheel locked up on me while I was driving twice during a 10 minute trip. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks.

I was turning right and it locked up going to the right so i took the turn wide to not hit the curb...When I went to spin the wheel back to the left the steering wheel just released itself . After that it was fine the rest of the day.

sounds like your steering wheel isnt to blame. you should have the steering system checked out. this is a serious safety issue.
