Description of the problem	Car shakes a little bit at highway speeds. The problem is a loud popping noise when turning. Typically in parking lots at slower speeds. Do not hear the popping when driving ever. You can also sit in the car with the car running, turn the wheel either direction and when you turn the wheel back you can feel and hear the popping in the steering wheel and continue going back and forth producing the popping noise and vibration with every turn of the wheel. Had everything checked at private mechanic and the inner tie rods were replaced. Did not resolve the issue. The car had the engine replaced at 90000 miles related to another recall. Charged me 400 dollars for a new starter at that time when nothing was wrong with the starter prior to the engine seizing. The car now has 99900 miles on it, but the popping noise has been present since 94000 miles. One mechanic says it is rack and pinion another is saying eps needs replaced. I am calling the dealership tomorrow but both are costly repairs and a safety issue. Now the traction control light is on.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
