A pivotal column auto lock to prevent unauthorized access to a steering column having a housing, and a cylinder lock for controlling a movable axis pin. The axis pin being formed so as to be flexibly inserted into an enclosure being secured, releasably upon a pivotal column enclosure to block the rotation of the pivotal column when a vehicle is parked. The housing having two equal walls that fits over a steering column-mounted ignition lock, thus a lock-housing having two figurations beneath that fits a pair of grooves upon the two equal walls. This arrangement secures these two equal walls above, while a releasably unmovable rod secures them bellow. The pivotal column enclosure includes two equal walls having a cutout through one wall thus of which a mounted gear-shift lever extends. A flat is provided upon the other equal wall for easy removal of the cylinder lock, when it is rotated to a neutral position. This position is provided again for the securement of the pivotal column enclosure beneath by way of a latching device, and for the insertion of the enclosure in which receives the inserted axis pin. The cylinder lock has a latch beneath being inserted into a pocket formed upon the housing. This arrangement will prevent unauthorized persons from pivoting the pivotal column out of the "park" position, while the steering column continues to swivel conventionally without change.
