Description of the problem | I noticed when i went from park to drive leaving a spot and turned by steering wheel to the left it was a little tight. As time has gone, it has gotten extremely worse. On april 26, 2015, i was leaving a driveway and tried to turn the steering wheel to the right and could hardly turn it. This is happening every day now when i start off and it happens more when i turn left than when i turn right. I am afraid that if i am at a crossover on a multi-lane highway, i will not be able to turn my steering wheel in time to get out of the way of on-coming traffic. What is being done about this. My vehicle has been in the shop for 5 recalls already. This was a lemon from get go. |
