That was my thought as well, steering lock issue. Roommate had a Civic he couldn't start, sat in the passenger seat with him for five minutes flipping through the manual, told him to turn the steering wheel and voila. I almost always accidentally lock the steering getting out of cars with my thick thighs and my habit of bringing the wheel close and low to me. I don't even think about it anymore, I automatically put a little pressure on the wheel when starting to unlock it.

The aforementioned link is probably it, a harness or sensor issue not allowing the steering lock to disengage, which looks incredibly annoying to fix. And with how shitty dealerships are, printing it out and handing it to your service people will probably be met with "we can't do that it's for an FR-S"
