I can't help too much...but, these cars do not have a physical steering lock. You can still turn the wheel with the key out.
The battery in the key fob is not required to start the car. The car would still start with no battery in the fob.
When you say the lights are flashing below the bumper. When and for how long?
Could be something to do with the car alarm.
