| Description of the problem | The car will not stay aligned. Every 1,000 miles or so, the steering gets wildly out of adjustment and causes the car to drift all over the road. It is frightening to drive, especially in dense traffic at highway speed. It is impossible to maintain a straight line with the car. At times, the steering wheel must be aimed far to the left to go straight. Moments later, with no warning, the car dives to the left and the wheel must be held to the right. |
