I've never had that happen with any hub, especially a Warn. Could someone be sneaking up and locking your hub?

Which side are you finding locked?

If it's the passenger side, I suppose it is possible something is dragging on the hub, causing it to lock.

Is the **** REALLY REALLY easy to turn?

You can always contact Warn, they have a lifetime warranty...

There's a fair chance you have some debris caught in there that's causing it to rotate when you drive, I found a piece of gravel jammed up in one of mine that caused it to do the same thing. Might be worth your time to pull the front off and check for junk in there. Or slap the joker that's messing with your hubs
