Stuck steering wheel adjustment lever (tilt/telescope wheel)

[svgrdr]

Hey all! I just recently returned home after a 4 day, 2705 mile road trip up and down the East Coast. During each of the nearly 15-hour drives, I adjusted my steering wheel and seat positions several time to reduce fatigue. On my last leg of the trip back home, I moved my steering wheel as normal, and nothing seemed off. Yesterday. I went in to detail/vacuum my interior, and when I went to pull the lever to move the steering wheel up, it wouldn't budge!! Not even a little bit of movement. I tried pushing down and pulling up, pulling outward on it, etc. Nothing worked. Curious if anyone else has had the same problem! I know it's a strange one! The adjustment lever is completely stuck, as if welded in place!

I honestly change my seat position and wheel position at least once per week and never ran into this issue, hopefully it’s simple fix!
