Um WTF?! My jack is stuck

So I went to jack up the rear of the car, put the jackstand under, and when i turn the knob to release the jack, it doesnt move. Haha wtf!! I need to get my car down!!! LOL suggestions?

I guess I could just pull the shitty stock jack from the trunk :/

well a way you really don't want to do it, but absolute last resort, let the hydraulic fluid out of it.

Lol yes, i ended up just using the stock jack to jack it up higher and taking my other one out from underneath.

Once I pulled it out and released the pressure, it went down almost instantly.

Stupid gmpp jack

It bound up on itself lol. Mine does that too sometimes. If it gets tilted in any way the sides press up against the body of the jack and it won't go down. Sucks but it happens.

Glad you got it down
