| Description of the problem | With the engine started and in park you can turn the steering wheel right or left and it has a thumping noise. It seems like it doesn't affect the steering but this is the car my wife drives and it makes her very nervous. It makes you very uncomfortable driving the car because you don't know if the steering wheel is going to lock up and cause a serious accident. |
